Your support can help us achieve this vision.

    Donate

  • Gift Aid is a no hassle, low effort way to help Autism NI. Gift Aid is a scheme that allows charities to reclaim tax on a donation make by a UK taxpayer, which means that your donation can be worth 25% more to us at no extra cost to you. Imagine what a difference that could make and it doesn’t cost you a thing.

    This additional income makes a big impact to the donations we receive to help support our services, so please don’t forget to Gift Aid your donation if you are a UK taxpayer.

    How it works:

    If you are a UK taxpayer, the Government allows charities to reclaim 25% of your donation and it won’t cost you anything extra. With your permission, Autism NI can re-claim tax on your behalf. All you need to do is read the Gift Aid statement and if you are happy to proceed then download and sign the form attached.

    What we need to claim Gift Aid:

    • Your full name and home address

    • Your donation amount

    • Confirm you are a UK taxpayer

    • We cannot claim Gift Aim from company accounts. Therefore your donation must be your own and not the proceeds of a collection

    • Using your completed form, we can claim Gift Aid on all your donations in the last 4 years and all future donations

    • Please inform us if you have stopped paying tax or if you have changed your name/address so that we can update our records
