How did you hear about Holy Rood House? ……………………………

We are a registered charity wholly supported by donations from guests, visitors, friends, financial partners, local organisations and some grant making trusts.

These donations make your stay here possible as without them we would not be able to continue to run the House. In order for us to be able to offer hospitality to others we ask that you also should make a donation towards the costs of maintaining the House for the future.

A donation is a gift and while we do not make specific charges we suggest that your gift should, as a minimum, reflect the time that you have spent here. We understand that giving these amounts may not always be possible for some people and we would be happy to discuss individual cases.

If you are a tax payer and can sign a Gift Aid form this will greatly enhance the value of your gift at no extra expense to yourself. We can claim back 28p in the pound out of the tax that you have already paid.

I (full name)

confirm that I am a UK tax payer and I pay income, or capital gains tax, at least equal to the amount of tax to be reclaimed, (currently 28p per £1 donated) and that it is my wish to make this and all future donations under the Gift Aid Scheme.
