Gift Aid
Please sign up to the gift aid scheme when you donate goods to our shops if you are a UK tax payer. This means that we can claim an additional 25% of the sold price of your donated goods from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs at no extra cost to you - increasing the value of your gift to Octavia Foundation.
For example, if you donated a bag of clothing to our shops that was sold for £20, we would be able to claim an additional £5 back in Gift Aid from the government, increasing the total value of the goods that you have donated to £25.
Since early 2011, we have claimed over £40,000 in gift aid from HMRC thanks to our fantastic gift aid supporters!
Businesses that donate trading goods to our shops or offer other in-kind, corporate support can claim corporation tax relief, but are not eligible for the gift aid scheme.
Gift Aid forms and full terms and conditions are available in our shops, or you can request a form by contacting Suneeta Kumar on 020 8354 5661.
