Boost every donation with Gift Aid
Gift Aid is a government scheme that lets charities reclaim tax on donations, at no extra cost to you. By signing up to Gift Aid, your donations will be worth 25% more. So if the lovely things you bring sell for £10, we will actually receive £12.50. Download a Gift Aid form here and add it to your donation.
