'Tick the box' and see generous charity donations go 25% further, the government urges eligible taxpayers.
This comes on the day of the all-star Sport Relief telethon, which raised £38 million for charities in the UK and abroad in 2018. Sport Relief is a fundraising campaign run by Comic Relief that raises money to tackle mental health stigma, domestic abuse, homelessness and poverty, both in the UK and around the world.
Gift Aid allows UK charities and community amateur sports clubs to claim an extra 25p for every £1 donated.
Statistics published by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) show that in 2018 to 2019, Gift Aid from individuals contributed more than £1.3 billion to the charities sector.
