In-Reply-To: 84FD18C8-7BAE-4F64-A675-047B6A40019F@mikepeel.net Two bits one highlighted from what Andrew Turvey said:
Whilst we can still get Gift Aid declarations (HMRC have previously confirmed this was ok) we should probably add a caveat on the form explaining that our charitable status is contested.
And one from the email from HMRC:
Wiki UK Ltd is not established for charitable purposes only as required by the legislation and so is not a charity for tax purposes. The charity tax examptions and reliefs (including Gift Aid tax relief) are not, therefore, available to Wiki UK Ltd.
I think you would be on dangerous ground using Gift Aid at all.
