You can renew your membership or join the Friends in three different ways by clicking on the buttons below. You will be redirected to Go Cardless to make and set up Direct Debit and one-off payments.
After you have made your payment, you will be asked to complete a form to confirm Gift Aid, opt-in email permissions and to acknowledge that as a Friend of Elizabeth Gaskell’s House you are legally responsible for £1 in the unlikely event that the charity has to be dissolved.
You can opt out of emails at any time and can contact us directly to change your Gift Aid status at anytime during your membership.
Opting-in to Gift Aid means that Elizabeth Gaskell’s House can reclaim an extra 25% in tax on every eligible donation made by a UK taxpayer. This extra 25% comes from the Government and doesn’t cost you anything. Claiming Gift Aid can make the difference between being able to deliver activity or not at the House so please do opt-in if you are able.
