Gift Aid for Fundraisers - cover

Specialist tax adviser Graham Elliott has written a new guide on Gift Aid covering both the basics and the complexities of the opportunities available to charities.

In 2019-20 £1.4 billion was paid to charities which had claimed Gift Aid on eligible donations. As many fundraisers will know, more can be made of Gift Aid’s opportunities, from simply starting to claim to making use of some of its other provisions.

Graham Elliott’s book, published as part of the Charity First series by SPM Fundessentials, aims to cover all the opportunities, including the full body of guidance from HMRC. It is a fully updated version of The Gift Aid Guide first published in the Charity First series in 2013.
