If this is a personal donation, and if you are eligible, please may we ask you to complete a Gift Aid Declaration?
Gift Aid is a scheme that allows charities to reclaim tax on a donation made by a UK taxpayer, which means your donations will be worth 25% more to us at no extra cost to you.
If you Gift Aid your donations, we can claim back from the government 25p for every £1 you donate to Perth Autism Support.
You can download a copy of our Gift Aid Declaration on the fundraising home page or contact us on fundraising@perthautismsupport.org.uk
A regular donation will help us when planning for the future of Perth Autism Support, and help us reach more autistic children and young people.
Donating on a regular basis is beneficial for you as it allows you to budget your support. You can spread the cost over a long period, paying smaller amounts on a monthly basis, while still significantly contributing to the ongoing vital work of PAS.
You can set up your regular donation via Standing Order please contact us on fundraising@perthautismsupport.org.uk for our bank details.

Have you heard of Payroll Giving?
It is a way to provide Perth Autism Support with a regular income, to allow us to plan and budget for the future and because donations are taken before tax, it means that we get more of your donation and it costs you less!!
Another benefit of Payroll giving is that we don’t have to claim Gift Aid, so there’s less admin for us – and we can concentrate on supporting you, our children and young people.
For example, if you were a 20% tax rate payer and wanted to donate £10 a month to us from your wages, it would actually cost you £8 by using Payroll Giving. If you were in the 40% tax rate payer, the cost to you would be only £6. That’s how cost effective it is!
What is Payroll Giving?
Payroll Giving is a scheme that enables employees to give to any UK charity straight from their gross pay (before tax is deducted), and to receive immediate tax relief. Payroll Giving has numerous benefits for businesses, including financial, aiding staff retention and improving CSR.
Employees
Your employer needs to set up and run the scheme. The amount of tax relief you get depends on the rate of tax you pay. A great Payroll Giving calculator slide can be found here https://www.cafonline.org/my-personal-giving/plan-your-giving/caf-give-as-you-earn
Employers
We would recommend the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) to set up a scheme but there are various other agencies who also run this tax efficient giving service.
Deductions are made each time you run payroll. The donations will be taken from your employees’ pay before tax but after National Insurance.
CAF or your chosen agency will be able to answer any questions you or your employees have about the scheme.
Costs of Running a scheme
Agencies may charge an administration fee. They usually deduct this from employees’ donations before they pass them to the charity. You can choose to pay the fee, meaning the charities will get more money.
You can deduct any costs of running the scheme from your business profits before tax.
For more help with Payroll Giving contact us and we will be happy to help!

How does Amazon Smile work?
It’s Amazon’s way of donating to the causes their customers care about, like Perth Autism Support. When you shop via the dedicated Smile website, Amazon will donate 0.5% of the cost of your purchases to your nominated charity. It’s no different from shopping on the regular Amazon site. You’ll pay the same prices and enjoy the same benefits (for example if you’re signed up to their Prime service). However, you must checkout via the Amazon Smile website for us to receive a donation.
How do I choose Perth Autism Support?
You can select us as your charity on the Amazon Smile website. Click on ‘Your Account’ and then ‘Change Your Charity’ and then in the search box type ‘Perth Autism Support. Once you’ve selected us you’ll see a message from smile.amazon.co.uk thanking you for your purchases. Then you are all ready to go.
Shopping via a laptop or computer?
Once you’ve selected us, just remember to use the dedicated website www.smile.amazon.co.uk and shop as normal – remember to bookmark the page, as you must check out on the Amazon Smile website for us to get the donation. Your basket will be the same on both Amazon’s regular site and their Smile site. Already started shopping? Don’t worry, you can just switch over to the Amazon Smile site before checkout without having to start again.
