Mind BLMK works across our communities to support positive mental health and wellbeing. Working closely with a range of partners, we offer a number of activities from our wellbeing centres and local venues to make a difference to the mental health and wellbeing of people in Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes, and our aim is to make sure that no-one has to face a mental health problem alone.

Reclaim Gift Aid

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Mind BLMK to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Mind BLMK we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Tell me more »

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Mind BLMK to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Mind BLMK will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Mind BLMK receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.

Our many mental health workers have been having welfare conversations over the phone, speaking with some service two to three times a week. We’ve heard from people who have been struggling with suicidal thoughts, because they haven’t been able to see loved ones for months as they are shielding and can't go out.

We want to continue being there in whatever way we can for our community, because no one should have to face a mental health problem alone. But we need your support to do this.

Just £10 could pay the cost of a 40 minute phone call to de-escalate a crisis. Please share this post to raise awareness of our work or if you can, make a one-off or regular donation at mind-blmk.org.uk/donate
