New Gift Aid Calculator

The change in the basic rate of income tax from 5 April will affect income received via Gift Aid (down from 28% to 25%).

Debt advice is a professional activity regulated by the Office of Fair Trading, and requires a great deal of time and planning.

If you currently offer advice, or it is your vision to start doing so this year, we strongly recommend you first look at our new Briefing Paper "Debt as a Professional Activity".
