Gifts from UK Residents and UK Taxpayers
The Foundation is most grateful for all donations received in support of Bedford School.
If you are a UK tax payer, we can increase the value of your gift through the Governments’ Gift Aid scheme. This allows us to currently claim an extra 28% of the value of your gift from HMRC. You just need to sign and date the Gift Aid section of our Donation Form. The Bedford School Foundation is a registered Charity No. 1095681.
