Gift Aid is a government scheme that allows your parish to reclaim the tax that you have paid on your donation. If you are a taxpayer and give £10 to your parish, you will have paid tax on that amount. Your parish can get £2.50 back with Gift Aid, so your donation of £10 would become £12.50.
Here are some examples of how much extra money your parish could get in just one year.

£1 | £52 | £13 | £65 |
£3 | £156 | £39 | £195 |
£5 | £260 | £65 | £325 |
£10 | £520 | £130 | £650 |
