Members' Update - Membership Fees/Donations



I am sure that you have been inundated with requests from charities regarding the recent change in tax legislation. As of April 2000 charities can reclaim tax on all donations made to us by UK taxpayers. If you pay UK income or capital gains tax then all you have to do is agree (just once) that we can reclaim the tax on your Membership/donations. If you are a standard rate taxpayer this will mean we can reclaim 28p for every £1.00 you donate or have donated since April 2000.

The only action you need to take is complete the Declaration and returned to:

Primary Care Rheumatology Society
PO Box 42,
Northallerton,
North Yorkshire DL7 8YG


Fax:(01609) 774726

Alternatively, if you prefer you can make the Declaration by phone or e-mail, simply repeat the words on the form. Please make time to do this for us as it increases the value of donations by 28%.
