All funds claimed back from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) as part of the Gift Aid scheme will be treated as unrestricted funds and will be used to support UKSA’s overall charitable work, wherever the need is greatest, even if your original donation was restricted to a specific project.

This will allow UKSA to respond to a significant area of need that has been identified or to give UKSA an opportunity to fulfil our charitable objectives in the most effective way.
