Add Gift Aid

Yes, I want to Gift Aid my donation and any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to Winchester Basics Bank

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.
