Gift Aid

Your subscription of £14 can release a tax refund for Tynedale U3A of over £3.50 at no additional cost to yourself and will be claimed without any further action on your part. The only requirement is that each individual signing the declaration must be an existing tax-payer for at least the amount claimed (together with any other declarations they have made to other organisations/charities). Please tick the Gift Aid box if it applies.
Should your circumstances change you can either notify the current treasurer that you wish to cancel your declaration & this will be done immediately, or put the change on the renewal form next year.

Data protection

We have to have the permission of all members to collect basic data about them and to use it in order to contact them, for example to send newsletter links, notices of meetings, items of general interest, membership information and to allow group convenors to contact the members of their groups.
