Donations
We are an independant organisation manned by a dedicated team of volunteers and funded almost entirely from public donations.
Donations of any size are always welcome and help keep our unique service running. Operating costs of approx. £6,000 per year are met primarily by the efforts of the team members attending local shows and giving talks to demonstrate our work and raise safety awareness. Capital items and major equipment costs are met from grants and the proceeds from our annual sponsored Cross Bay Walk.
We are extremely grateful to groups or individuals who raise money for the Bay Search and Rescue team. We rely very much on the goodwill and generosity of others. So if you would like to support us, here's how:
Donations
Donations By Post (non
Taxpayers)
Donations can be made
by cheque or postal order. Please
make them payable to Bay Search
and Rescue and send to our contact
address
Donations By Post (Taxpayers
'Gift Aid')
Gift Aid is a way
for charities to reclaim the tax that members
of the public have paid on the money they
are donating. If you are a UK taxpayer and
making a donation to Bay Search and Rescue,
we can reclaim the tax you have paid. To comply
with tax legislation, we will need written
permission from you to do this. It does make
a difference (28p extra for each £1 you donate)
so we really urge you to consider this option.

form you can post with your donation.

You can also donate to
Bay Search and Rescue online
as a taxpayer using 'Gift AId'
or non taxpayer using the Smart
Give service
Thankyou
