Yes — if you’re a UK taxpayer, you can boost your donation by 25% at no extra cost by ticking the Gift Aid box on our donation form.

Please note that Gift Aid only applies to pure donations, not to payments for event tickets, hospitality packages, or other purchases connected to our Ashes fundraising activities.

It depends on what you’re paying for.

• Pure donations — where you give money freely and receive nothing in return — are tax-deductible. For example, a direct donation to support our Ashes fundraising tour is tax-deductible.
• Event payments — such as buying tickets or tables for our Ashes dinners, match-day events, or hospitality — aren’t tax-deductible because you receive a benefit (like food, drink, or entertainment).
   

Only the voluntary donation portion, given separately from your ticket payment, may be tax-deductible if you receive no benefit in return.
