Ways of Giving

Please join us and be involved in ensuring that 120 years of tradition is matched by the provision of new resources to facilitate innovation and academic excellence for future generations.

As The Judd School Development Fund is a registered charity, we are able to turn 78p into £1, by reclaiming tax from the Inland Revenue, if you are a UK tax payer, at no extra cost to you.

You can increase the value of your donation by giving tax efficiently.

Regular Giving - This is the most popular way of making a gift, as it spreads the cost over a period of time. Whilst there is no minimum lifespan, we hope you will consider giving over a 7 year period. Payments are normally made by standing order either monthly, quarterly or annually.

One Off Gifts - by a single gift using the Gift Aid Scheme. By making a single gift of an equivalent amount to a gift given over several years, it will reduce the schools need to borrow and therefore minimise any interest payments.

Payroll Giving - If you give through your payroll, your gift is made from your salary before it is taxed. So a monthly gift of £20 will cost you only £15.60 from your net pay. A number of companies offer a "Matched Giving" scheme, through which they double, or sometimes more than double, any charitable donations made by their employees. Please check with your HR Department to see if your company operated any such scheme.

Transfer of Shares - Since April 2000, individuals have been able to receive income tax relief on gifts to charities, such as The Judd School Development Fund, of certain shares, securities and other investments. In addition no capital gains tax is payable on the full value of the gift. For example:
Value of shares given £1,000
Income tax relief for higher rate taxpayer £ 400
Potential capital gains saving £ 400
'Cost' to a higher rate taxpayer £ 200
To make a share gift, please contact the Development Office.

Legacy Pledges - Charitable legacies are donations made as part of your Will. By remembering The Judd School in your Will, you can create a legacy of learning and help to contribute to the future success of the School. Please download the separate leaflet here or contact the Development Office.
