Thank you - your support makes a real difference

In the UK, 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. No one plans for that moment, and very few are prepared for the emotional, physical and practical impact that follows.

By making a donation, or giving a regular gift, you will be ensuring that anyone affected by cancer can access free counselling and complementary therapies when they need them most.

Your monthly donation allows us to plan ahead, respond without delay and make sure vital support is already in place when a diagnosis turns someone’s world upside down.

Even a small regular gift makes a lasting difference.
Thank you for helping us be there, today and tomorrow.

Reclaim Gift Aid

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Wessex Cancer Support to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Wessex Cancer Support we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Wessex Cancer Support to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Wessex Cancer Support will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Wessex Cancer Support receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
