ShareGift
The company is aware that shareholders who hold a small number of
shares may be retaining these shares because dealing costs make it
uneconomical to dispose of them. ShareGift, the charity share donation
scheme, is a free service operated by The Orr Mackintosh Foundation
(registered charity 1052686) to enable shareholders to donate shares to
charity.
Donating your shares in this way will not give rise to either a gain or a
loss for UK capital gains tax purposes and you may be able to reclaim UK
income tax on gifted shares. Further information can be obtained from
HM Revenue & Customs.
Should you wish to donate your shares to charity in this way you should
contact ShareGift for further information:
