Gift Aid

Increase your donation by 25%!
Our Society depends on member subscriptions and donations from the public to keep the trains running, for maintenence of the picnic site at Cinderbarrow and for all our other activities. We are grateful to our visitors and other benefactors for the help they give us.

Supporters and members of our Society can help even more by completing a Gift Aid form. If you are a taxpayer, any donation you make to the Society will be increased by 25p for every £1 you donate when the Society claims back the tax that you have paid on it.

We urge all members and supporters to complete the Gift Aid form below, even if you do not wish to make a donation at the moment. Any donation you make in the future, or that you have made in the last 4 years, will then be eligible for the tax refund. There is no obligation to make a donation now or at any time in the future. The form is valid until cancelled.

In the near future we will provide the option to make a donation by credit card from this page, but at present, we are not able to accept on line donations.

Charity Gift Aid Declaration

    Boost your donation by 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 you donate
    Gift Aid is reclaimed by the charity from the tax you pay for the current tax year. Your address is needed to identify you as a current UK taxpayer.

    I want to Gift Aid any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to:

    Lancaster & Morecambe Model Engineering Society (2018)

    I am a UK taxpayer and 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 it is my responsibility to pay any difference.
