Giving in memory

If you have recently lost a loved one, we know how painful this can be and would like to offer our sincere condolences at this very difficult time. Donating or fundraising in memory is a special and meaningful way to celebrate the life of a loved one. Please be reassured that every single penny can and does make a real difference to Mind BLMK and we are incredibly grateful for being considered at this time. Any support received makes a direct difference to those in our local community.

Collecting in memory 

Collecting donations in memory of someone is another opportunity to remember a loved one with friends and family.

By choosing to ask for donations instead of flowers, at a funeral or celebration of life, you can make a lasting difference to Mind BLMK and those locally who we support.

Please click here to download the Mind BLMK in memory leaflet. If you would like any hard copies of these to be sent in the post to you, please e-mail [email protected]

We understand that at this time attending a funeral may be more challenging (for current guidance on attendance at funerals, please visit here). It may be that you still wish to hold a collection as a special way to remember them, to do so you can either talk to your funeral director to arrange this in aid of Mind BLMK, our charity number is 1068724, or you can guide people to our website to make a donation directly.

Donate in memory

Whether it was a cause they gave to personally or one close to your heart, every single pound you give will help us be there for more people across Bedfordshire, Luton, and Milton Keynes.

As you make your donation you can tell us the name of this special person, and if you’d like, you can tell us more about why you are donating.

Reclaim Gift Aid
Gift Aid It!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.

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.
