Gift Aid
This can be actioned by making a donation on top of the admission price or through joining the membership scheme.
The extra makes a massive difference and will help maintain and develop this unique centre.
Gift Aid Information
If you are a UK tax payer and pay the admission price plus a 10% donation, HM Revenue & Customs will currently give us 25 pence for every £1 you pay.
For example:
Adult admission price £8.00
Adult admission price with donation £8.80
The additional cost to you is just 80 pence, but in this example, instead of £8.00 or £8.80, The Centre will receive £11.
As you can imagine, that extra really adds up over a week, a month, or a year and makes a massive difference and contributes towards the development of this unique site.
Please complete a simple Gift Aid Declaration Form at our reception before you pay. You can also download a form (A4 or A5) to complete and bring with you.
Any information provided on this form remains confidential and will never be passed to any organisation other than the Inland Revenue.
If you are a higher rate taxpayer you will be able to use the admission receipt for your tax return.
