Donating to the Society

Legacies

This form of giving makes an extremely valuable contribution to the resources available to registered charities, as well as having tax benefits for the donors estate. If you are interested in discussing, in confidence, how a legacy might contribute further to the life of the Society and its public-benefit activities, please send us a completed copy of our legacy reply form or contact the Chief Executive, Dr William Duncan, or RSE Treasurer, Ewan Brown. Download our legacy brochure.

Gift Aid

Gift Aid increases the value of donations to charities by allowing them to reclaim basic rate tax on your gift. If you pay higher rate tax you can claim extra relief on your donations. If you claim age-related allowances or tax credits, Gift Aid donations can sometimes increase your entitlement. More about Gift Aid
