Sharegift

A gift of shares to Charity Bank is exempt from capital gains tax.  And for the great majority of shares and securities, you may also reduce your taxable income by the value of the shares gifted.

By linking up with Sharegift (http://www.sharegift.org/sharegift/) – a charity share donation scheme – we are also able to make individual shares or small parcels work for the common good.

Tax relief is also extended to gifts of UK freehold and leasehold land and buildings. This entitles the donor to claim income tax relief on the full value, while Charity Bank can receive the full sale proceeds if we subsequently sell the land or buildings.
