Simple, flexible, long-lasting, and effective philanthropy.

St Katharine & Shadwell Trust welcomes donations of any size from small, one-off contributions to large contributions for funds set up in the name of the donor.

A named fund can work just as a private charitable trust set up through an agreed series of donations, often over several years, or by gift in a will. Donations can be directed to particular areas or groups of beneficiaries.

Gift Aid

If you are a taxpayer, a simple Gift Aid declaration increases the value of your donation by enabling us to reclaim the basic rate of tax. Basic rate tax is 20 per cent, so this means that if you give £10 using Gift Aid, it’s worth £12.50 to the charity. For donations between 6 April 2008 and 5 April 2011 the charity or CASC will also get a separate government supplement of three pence on every pound you give.
