Moreover, we can benefit from all subscriptions paid in the last 5 years, and into the future as the law stands now. Gifting your subscription could hardly be easier - just complete the form at the bottom of the page and send it back to the office. In practice this means that for every £1.00 donated through Gift Aid we can claim back 25p, so by using Gift Aid every pound you give helps your subscription go further. So please Gift aid your subscription. Just read this form to make sure you are eligible, fill it in with your name and address and send it back to us. I wish my subscription to the Society, for the current and future subscriptions, to be treated as GIFT AID until I notify you otherwise. I also confirm that I shall be paying UK income tax and/or capital gains tax in the current year at least equal to the amount of my subscription.
