Your contribution can go even further

SELF-ASSESSMENT
A self-employed individual receives tax relief on the donation via his/her tax return. For example a donation of €250 (Frequent Friend) means a real cost to you of €200 if you are paying tax at the lower rate or €145 at the higher rate.

CORPORATE DONATIONS
Companies can treat the donation as a trading expense thus reducing the real cost.

PAYE TAXPAYER
Did you know your contribution could go even further at no extra cost to you? We can claim back the tax on any donations over €250 over the course of the next tax year. If you are paying tax at the higher rate of 42%, €250 from you is worth €431.03 or €312.5 if you pay tax at the standard rate. That means more funds available to us to create an even better programme of events for you!

Mermaid would not be able to put on such an exciting programme of events without the ongoing support of the following people who are greatly valued by us:
