If you are a UK taxpayer, you can make your donation go further by signing you are a taxpayer. Because we are a registered charity, the Government give back to Dr Kershaw’s 25p for every £1 donated by you, making your gift even more valuable. All you have to do is simply sign a form to give your consent.

• The Government will pay to the charity an additional 3p on every £1 you give between 6 April 2008 and 5 April 2011. This transitional relief for the charity does not affect your personal tax position.
