The Scottish Poetry Library exists for everyone, and would not do so quite as successfully without the generosity of donors. Donations help us to deliver our mission to bring people and poems together. Donations also help us to create, curate and collect poetry for communities everywhere, both online and in person, as the world’s leading resource for Scottish poetry. We exist to be welcoming, compassionate, and transform lives through poetry. Donors help us do that, and we thank you.

About Gift Aid

Gift Aid increases the value of membership contributions and donations to charities by allowing them to reclaim basic rate tax on your gift. It allows us to claim 25% on top of your donation, for example, on a £50 membership or donation, we can claim back an additional £12.50.

We would like to reclaim gift aid on your behalf. We can only reclaim Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer. Please confirm that you are eligible for Gift Aid. More about Gift Aid.
