A small gift, kindly received

£75 buys nine Welsh slates and the nails that hold them.

Every pound given to Louisa Cottages goes directly to the maintenance of the six almshouses on Akeman Street, to the Winter Hearth grant for residents, or to our small reserves. We do not pay a fundraiser. We do not pay our trustees. The Charity Commission record shows trustee remuneration at zero, every year.

Your details

Gift Aid (optional)

I am a UK taxpayer and I would like Louisa Cottages Charity to claim Gift Aid on my donations made in the past four years, today, and in the future. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and / or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in the current tax year, it is my responsibility to pay any difference.

Cards are processed via our payment partner. Your receipt will arrive by email; a paper copy can be sent by post on request to [email protected].
