STANDING ORDERS
Over 100 ERT Friends have taken out a standing order to support our work. You ask your bank to make regular payments to the ERT. Download this standing order form, complete and return it to us. You control what goes out, when, and how long for. If you are a UK taxpayer, also download the Gift Aid form and send it to us. The taxman increases your donation by the standard rate of income tax. Note that only one tax payer can claim for Gift Aid on his or her donation.


LEGACIES
Legacies are a wonderful way of giving to charity. Over the years the ERT has received legacies great and small. Some we expected and some were a complete surprise! Including a charity in your Will saves inheritance tax from your estate. If you are considering including the ERT in your Will, you may find it helpful to download our legacy form.
