How to Help Us

About Gift Aid

As a registered Charity, registration No 1012743, the Friends of the Bletchley Park National Codes Centre are able to reclaim income tax from any subscription or donation received in accordance with a Gift Aid Declaration.

You must pay enough tax overall to cover tax we reclaim (currently 28p for every £1 you give).  This includes tax under PAYE and tax deducted from bank interest.  If you are not a taxpayer please do not sign a gift aid declaration.  If in future your circumstances change and you no longer pay sufficient tax, you can cancel your declaration at any time by letting us know in writing.

We can only reclaim tax at the basic rate event if you pay tax at the higher rate but you can obtain further tax relief in your annual self assessment tax return.

You may cancel a Declaration at any time by letting us know in writing.

Please help the Friends by completing the Gift Aid Declaration section on the downloadable application form.

When completed and signed, please send the form to:
Sue Litchfield

Support Us

Each year the Trust has to generate funds to ensure that items held within its care are kept to the high standards required and to allow a first class service to customers visiting the exhibitions in person or through the internet.

Please help the Trust to continue with its valuable work by making a donation today.  CAF (Charities Aid Foundation) administer funds on behalf of the Trust and also provide our online donation service.  Your bank statement will show that your gift has been made to CAF who will in turn send the funds to us. To make a donation please click here. You can make a one off or a regular credit/debit card donation.

Any support you are able to offer would be greatly appreciated.

If you would like to discuss the potential of supporting Bletchley Park further please contact Simon Greenish on +44 (0) 1908 640404 or contact us.
