Individuals can obtain a double form of tax relief by donating gifts of equities. The market value of the gift can be offset against any income tax liability and in addition the gift would be exempt from any liability for Capital Gains Tax. For example, if you give The London Oratory School £1,000 worth of shares, and you are a higher rate taxpayer, you will pay £400 less in income tax that year.
Additionally, you will not have to pay any Capital Gains Tax (CGT) on any increase in the value of the shares since you bought them. This could mean a further saving. If shares you donate have gone down in value, you should be aware that you will not be able to use this loss to offset any other CGT liability you have.
As The London Oratory School is unable to give you financial advice we would urge you to talk to  your financial advisor about the tax implications of donating shares

Many companies help charities through a matched giving scheme ; the nature of schemes will vary from company to company;
Some will offer a set annual amount in return for volunteer work employees do for a registered charity
Others will match pound for pound or double match any donations which its employees make to registered charities. 
Please check with your Payroll or HR department as to whether your company do operate such a scheme.

By gift aiding your contribution we can reclaim an additional 25p in every £1, making your gift worth even more at no extra cost to you. Gift Aid is an invaluable source of ‘extra’ income. If you qualify, please fill in the Gift Aid declaration form as it enables us to reclaim 25p from HM Revenue and Customs for every £1 donated.
Higher rate tax payers donating through Gift Aid can claim back the difference between the higher rate of tax and the basic rate of tax on the total value of their donation to The London Oratory School via their Self Assessment Form.
We reclaim the tax by forwarding details of your gift to the Inland Revenue.
