Meet Heal: the rewilding charity on a mission to give land back to nature, forever.

In today's world, taking care of nature and fighting climate change is crucial. That's where rewilding comes in – it's like giving nature a helping hand by letting it go back to its natural self. And guess what? It’s not just good for plants and animals, it's awesome for tackling climate change too!

That's why we're excited to introduce Heal Rewilding as our fourth charity partner at Ticket Tailor. 

To mark the launch, we caught up with Ruby, Communications Trainee at Heal, to discuss the importance of rewilding and how these donations will support their mission of returning land to nature.

As an event creator, you’re already pretty well set-up to donate to a charity that’s close to your heart.

From setting up voluntary donations at the point of ticket sale to partnering with one or more charities – there are plenty of ways you can make raising money through your events a long-term goal. Let’s take a look 👀👇.

How UK charities can claim Gift Aid on donations with Ticket Tailor

How UK charities can claim Gift Aid on donations with Ticket Tailor

If you’ve ever sponsored someone in a charity sport event, it’s likely you’ve been asked whether or not you want to add Gift Aid to your donation. But what exactly is Gift Aid? UK-based charities and community amateur sports clubs (CASCs) can claim an extra 25p for every £1 donated from HMRC through Gift Aid, which can quickly add up and make a huge difference.

While it’s an easy way to boost voluntary donations, collecting a Gift Aid declaration is not always as straightforward to set-up as it should be. So, we’ve added a new feature to make it as simple as possible for charities selling event tickets online with Ticket Tailor to claim and report on Gift Aid.
