What is Gift Aid?

Donations from UK taxpayers benefit from the government’s Gift Aid Scheme. For every £1 donated, the College can claim 25 pence of tax at no additional cost to you. Thus, a gift of £100 is worth £125 to St Peter's. Both regular and single gifts can be made tax-efficiently in the UK simply by checking the Gift Aid declaration box when giving online.

Higher-rate taxpayers can also benefit from tax relief by claiming back the difference between the higher rates of tax at 40% or 50% and the basic rate of tax at 20% on the total value of their gross donation.
