12th Man / Oxford Youth and Community?
Posted: Sat Mar 13, 2010 11:54 pm
I give £10 to 12th Man and CW gets £10 to spend on a player's transfer fee or wages, which so far has been unspectactular.
I sign a form, send £10 to Oxford Youth and Community, the charity claims back 25%, the government gives another 3% (I think until 5 April this year), the club getting £12.80. I get tax relief and it only costs me £7.50.
Any thoughts?
[edited to / instead of or] I think both can coexist, but seems better for employed people like me to give to OYC and get tax relief.
Businesses and the self-employed perhaps claim back VAT and put through sponsorship and so on as advertising, getting the tax deduction that way.
