Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Heel & Toe Childrens Charity 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 Heel & Toe Childrens Charity 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 Heel & Toe Childrens Charity 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.

Lucy’s Story

Lucy’s condition affects her balance, and her walking and running abilities. She struggles with her coordination and core stability as well. All exercises are geared towards improving these areas and helping Lucy to be more independent and have more control over her own movements.

Outside of Heel and Toe Lucy loves to go horse riding, trampolining and doing balance exercises. She also goes to a swimming club and would love to swim in the Paralympic Games one day.

At Heel and Toe she has made good friends with her co-buddy Phillip and she loves working with the therapists, getting better and improving in exercises and everyday life. Her confidence has greatly improved, as has her walking and climbing abilities.

Lucy loves taking part in events that help raise funds and awareness of Heel and Toe, including the Junior GNR, GNR and the zipslide.
