Tell me more »

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.

Joshua W’s Story

Joshua was born 7 weeks early following a high risk pregnancy. He is a twin, and weighed 4lb 7. Following birth he required oxygen, incubator, tube feeding and antibiotics. At 5 days old Joshua was allowed home. It wasn’t until he was 2 years old that hearing problems were identified and then at 3 years old he received the diagnosis of verbal dyspraxia. This was later followed with the diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder and Sensory Processing Disorder at 6 years old. Joshua is currently on set number 3 of grommets for glue ear although his hearing is still not great.

Joshua struggles with moving his mouth correctly in order to form words and has a stammer so requires Speech and Language Therapy to assist him with this.

He doesn’t like being touched or in busy/crowded places but he greatly enjoys playing outside.
