Financial gifts can be made through entries in the Book which is available for contributions of a more specific nature. There is no scale of charges and the size of donation is left to the discretion of the donor. However, a taxpayer making a donation of £250 or more will attract a refund of tax to the Society by the Inland Revenue. This 'Gift Aid ' scheme will not present the contributor with any inconvenience as the Treasurer will complete the small amount of paperwork necessary. The amount of an individual gift is not disclosed to anyone apart from the Treasurer and the Society's auditor.
