    Charitable Donations

    No not knobbing the fat bird at the end of the night in Flares, but while doing the end of year and the section of charitable donations came up. Do you give, do you do it from your pocket or from the companies and claim the tax relief?

    I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

    I give a non-trivial amount to charity and I always do it as a personal donation, which is eligible for gift-aid and also increases my personal tax-free allowance by 125% of the amount given.

      Personal, unless it's in a company capacity, e.g. conspicuous donation to client's Christmas charity.

        +1. To maximise the amount of money a charity receives a gift aided personal donation gives them slightly more money.
        merely at clientco for the entertainment

          Both. Primarily personal, but occasionally from the company instead.

            Lots of small personal gifts such as aunty doing race for life and usually a DEC donation from company of a couple of days work. If no DEC in that year, then sport / comic relief.
