Gift Aid & Direct Debit

  • IAC is a registered charity. If you are a UK tax-payer and pay under the Gift Aid scheme - you pay the normal rate but IAC gains significantly. The government treats such donations as if you had already deducted basic rate tax from them. We can then reclaim this tax to increase the value of the donation. A Full Membership fee of £37.50 paid under Gift Aid is worth £48.00 to us.

  • It also helps us  - and saves you a little trouble each year - if you are prepared to pay by Direct Debit.

  • Download and study the Direct Debit & Gift Aid form which gives you the choices.
