Gift Aid means any registered charity, including independent museums, can claim 25p from the government for every £1 they receive from supporters and donors who are UK taxpayers.
It’s a great way to increase your income, especially since Gift Aid is worth £1.3 billion each year to the charity sector. But research from 2016 estimated that more than £500 million goes unclaimed annually. That amount of money could make a huge difference to organisations right across the charity sector, and, more importantly, to the people and communities you work with.
