Donating to the Ordsall Hall restoration campaign is easy and you can do so several ways. However, we would prefer that you do so using the secure JustGiving site.
UK resident?If you're a UK tax payer, please remember to Gift Aid your donation. It really can make a difference.
UK charities are entitled to 28% tax reclaim from the Inland Revenue on every £1 donated by UK taxpayers. Unfortunately, charities often miss out on this extra income because it is too expensive to process the paperwork on small donations.
JustGiving has solved the problem by automating the process of Gift Aid reclaim so that every £1 you give is worth more, and costs less to administer. Their processes have been audited and approved by the Inland Revenue.
When you donate using JustGiving you will be asked to confirm whether or not you are a UK taxpayer. Please note that tax can only be reclaimed on donations made by individuals who pay UK income or capital gains tax at least equal to the amount reclaimed on their donations in the current tax year.
This means that a £10 donation to Ordsall Hall will actually be worth £12.80 - imagine what a difference that could make - and it won't cost you a penny extra!
For more information about Gift Aid, visit the HM Revenue & Customs website at www.hmrc.gov.uk.
Non-UK resident?If you are NOT a UK resident, you can still make a donation using the JustGiving website.
Please make a donation in pounds sterling (£) - your credit card provider will automatically convert the £ sterling transaction to your local currency on your next statement. To see the latest exchange rates for your currency against the £, please visit www.xe.com/ucc.
The Gift Aid scheme (see above) is unique to the UK. If you are not a UK taxpayer, you can still make a donation through JustGiving, but your donation will not attract the 28% tax 'bonus'.
How to donate onlineMaking a donation to the campaign is simple and secure. Just click on the button below to go to the secure JustGiving site - all monies donated will go to direct to our official charity, The Friends of Salford Museums Association, to assist in securing the future of Ordsall Hall Museum.
If you have any concerns about the security or otherwise of donating online via the JustGiving website, just click on the button above to visit the site and then look for the "Verisign" security certificate.
Prefer not to donate online?If you would like to make a donation, but would prefer not to do so using the secure facilities provided by JustGiving, please send a cheque to Ordsall Hall, made payable to The Friends of Salford Museums Association.

Please note that it can be very expensive to convert foreign currency cheques to £ sterling. In order to maximise your donation to the campaign, we would prefer you to use the secure online donation facility. Every penny of your donation will then benefit Ordsall Hall rather than adding to the profits of the banks!
Visit Ordsall Hall and donate in person!Why not pop in to the hall to see where your money will be going? You can drop off cheques or cash to our friendly staff at the Hall.
If you're planning on an event this year - perhaps a 10km run or a sponsored fancy dress day - why not take the chance to raise money for Ordsall Hall?
The Friends of Salford Museum is a registered charity and JustGiving makes it easy to set up your own online fundraising page so that everything you raise will go towards this fantastic cause.
