donations

Your donation to the Disabilities Trust will help people with disabilities achieve lives which are as fulfilling and independent as possible. Your gift can make a real difference.

Cheque or cash
You can make a donation now using our Printable Donation Form. Remember to tick the Gift Aid box if you are a UK taxpayer. The money we are able to reclaim from the taxman - at no extra cost to you!

Online donation
Giving online is simple using our secure connection to 'Charity Choice' (in association with the Co-operative Bank). Remember, if you are a taxpayer, your contribution can be boosted by reclaiming tax via Gift Aid.

Monthly Regular Donation
You can help even more by making a regular commitment to The Disabilities Trust. A simple, effective way of doing this is to set up a standing order from your bank. To set up a standing order please telephone 01444 239123 to request a form or e-mail fundraising@thedtgroup.org

Payroll giving
The simplest and most tax-efficient way for individuals to give is through payroll giving. A monthly gift from your salary of £10 will cost you £7.80 after tax. Please ask your company if it operates a payroll giving scheme.

Donating shares
You may wish to consider making a donation of shares you no longer wish to keep. This is another potential tax-efficient way of giving to The Disabilities Trust. ShareGift, the charity share donation scheme, exists to make it easy for you to give any number of shares to charity. For further information, telephone ShareGift on 020 7337 0501 or visit www.sharegift.org.

Give through eBay
You can support The Disabilities Trust when you buy or sell something on eBay. Find out more here: eBay for Charity.

Buyers can bid on eBay for charity items, knowing that they are helping a worthy cause. Sellers can donate a percentage of your sales directly to us. MissionFish. who manage the eBay donation process, will then collect your donation when the auction ends and will pass this on to us.

Alternatively if you want to donate something to us we can then auction this at one of our high profile events. We would love to hear from you. For further information e-mail fundraising@thedtgroup.org

Dinner4good
The idea is beautifully simple - raise money by having your friends round for dinner. Anyone can do it, those donating get to enjoy the event itself and the money is raised by doing something everyone might have done anyway. What's more, it's sustainable - you can do it more than once, and your friends can do the same, which means that over the coming months this simple idea can raise more money than even the most heroic of feats!

How does it work? Just go to www.dinner4good.com/DisabilitiesTrust and you'll see that it couldn't be easier.
