A Regular gift
Regular donations are vital in helping us plan for the future. Click on the link below to download a regular giving form.

We want to make sure your donation goes as far as possible. If you pay tax, gift aid is an easy way of increasing the value of a donation at no extra cost to you! By completing a simple gift aid declaration, we can reclaim the tax you have paid on the money you want to give. For example, a donation of £50 is actually worth £64 to Compass.

Giving from your salary
Giving from your salary is another way of making your donation tax effective. Whether your company has a scheme in place or not, please contact us and we will be happy to advise you on the best way to give in this way.

Corporate Support
There are many ways Companies can make a difference.

Employee fundraising is an effective way to motivate your staff and develop internal relationships, at the same time as supporting Compass. We can supply you with a pack that will provide you with lots of fundraising ideas and information to support all your activities.

Your company may also like to consider a Cause related Marketing proposition or Sponsorship Opportunity that is tailored to your needs. We would be delighted to discuss any ideas you might have.

Share Giving
Are you a share owner? Whether retained or sold by Compass, your donation of shares can be your investment in our future.

This will enable you to claim tax relief on the full market value of shares, in addition to the exemption from capital gains tax.
