Other ways to support

Gift Aid

As a registered charity, the Royal Court Theatre can claim Gift Aid on donations, including the donation element of our Member and Supporter Circle Memberships. If you are a UK taxpayer, for every £1 you donate to the Royal Court Theatre, we can claim an additional 25p from HMRC at no extra cost to you. So, for example, if you donate £100, this will be worth £125 to the Royal Court Theatre.

To be eligible for Gift Aid donors must meet the following conditions:

1. Be a UK Tax-payer
2. Have paid or will pay enough income tax or capital gains tax matching the amount of gift aid claimed within the tax year

If you have not done so already, please consider helping to make your support go further by completing the Gift Aid declaration on your online account here.

Alternatively, you can download the Gift-Aid-Declaration and send it via post to:

Development
Royal Court Theatre
Sloane Square
London
SW1W 8AS

We are unable to claim Gift Aid on donations made via a Trust or Foundation, the American Fund for Charities (AFC) or through the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF). If you are a higher rate tax-payer, you can claim the difference between basic and higher rate tax in your annual return.
