Support people with autism and learning disabilities

Please support people with autism and learning disabilities live fulfilled lives and change the views of society. Help us, help them.

We are committed to developing a world of opportunities for the people with a learning disability and/or autism that we support. But in order to provide the best opportunities we can, we need funds, and this is where you can help!

We are currently fundraising for a showcase performance next summer in 2023, where Talkback members and staff will get the chance to show-off their talents to the community, proving that talent comes in many shapes and forms. Please give whatever you can to help us make this event the best it can be.

Reclaim Gift Aid

Gift Aid It!Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Talkback to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Talkback we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Talkback to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Talkback will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Talkback receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.

Changing Lives with Sport

The benefit we can all get from sport is the same for everyone. Our members with learning disabilities have tried cricket, badminton and archery, amongst other sports. Improved self-esteem is one obvious benefit, but the sheer fun is another; and a lot of our members are good enough to play in teams. We want to provide each person with the opportunity to learn to coach sports and are raising £2500 towards this to pay their coaching fees.

Changing Lives
with Art & Drama

In 2021 we want to take a play out “on the road”, with our learning disabilities drama group doing all the acting and staging. We need to raise £5000 to make this happen and do it well. The potential impact on educating society, as well as the great benefit for each of our members could be huge.
