Donating through your tax

Give your tax refund to charity

Nominate Arthritis Research UK to receive your tax refund and help us continue our vital work.

How it works

If you are completing a self assessment tax return, you can nominate a charity to receive any tax refund you are due.

The Government will treat this refund as a Gift Aid donation. This means that Arthritis Research UK will get at least 25p more for every pound donated – at no extra cost to you.

For example:

  • If you are owed £10
  • The taxman will add £2.50
  • Giving a total donation of £12.50

Please note that the scheme is open to UK taxpayers only.

What you need to do

To ensure Arthritis Research UK receives your tax refund, please include the charity's unique identifier number on the tax return form. This number is QAF58UG.
