You are eligible for Gift Aid if you are a UK income or capital gains taxpayer.

And if you are a higher rate taxpayer, you can claim back the difference between the higher and basic tax rate on your donation yourself (for example, if you donate £100 to Wiltshire Air Ambulance, we get a total of £125, and you can claim £25 yourself.
