donate

Since being founded, the Foundation has raised more than £12million for research into the early detection of lung cancer. The vast majority of this money has come from you, the public.

Corporate donations

As a charity we receive no government funding towards our research programmes and we rely heavily on the support of charitable trusts, individuals and businesses. Your organisation can make charitable donations to the charity to support our ongoing activities. Our dedicated staff would be happy to discuss any opportunities for funding. Please contact Janine or Liz on 0871 220 5426 or by email on corporate@roycastle.org

Tax relief on your donation

If you are a UK taxpayer, The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation can boost your gift by 28% by reclaiming tax from the Inland Revenue. As a result, a £10 gift is worth £12.80 - at no cost to you!

Businesses can make cash donations under the Gift Aid scheme, but the way they claim the tax relief differs according to the type of business they are.

Companies make their donation as a gross amount without deducting any tax. Then they treat the donation as a normal business expense when calculating taxable profit.

Sole traders apply the normal rules as individuals making Gift Aid donations.
