Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the “Yes” box, I agree I would like Somerset Wildlands 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 Somerset Wildlands 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 Somerset Wildlands 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.

Wild Wetlands

The Somerset Levels were once England’s Okavango Delta. From pelicans to lynx, beavers to sturgeons, it would have teemed with wildlife. While what remains is wonderful, too much is now gone. We will buy land to create space for nature and natural processes, and support the reintroduction of lost species.

People

Nature will only thrive and be restored if people value it. As we buy land we will work to provide space and opportunities for people to connect with nature, to develop skills and to gain experience of rewilding and restoration. We will keep infrastructure to an absolute minimum – the needs of the wildlife will come first.

Cities

While we will focus on rewilding and restoring nature to the countryside, we need to bring nature into the every day lives of our cities. We will support environmentally friendly planning, architecture and design, and urban food production. If the chance arises we will look to develop spaces for nature in the urban environment.
