ways to give
helping children to come out the other side
The Childhood Cancer Research Trust is currently raising money for the CCRT RSII Initiative which is focused on the scope of health in the context of cancer.
CLICK HERE to go to the CCRT RSII Initiative.
100% of donations received are distributed by the Childhood Cancer Research Trust to childhood cancer research at this time.
We do not need millions to change the face of childhood cancer treatments forever. We simply need enough to trigger the tipping point at which scientific knowledge translates into treatment.
subscription to easyfundraising
This takes seconds to set up but can be a good way to make a difference with regular donations. Most popular retailers from supermarkets, DIY and fashion stores, to phone network providers and electrical chains participate in the scheme. You can either find the retailer site via Easyfundraising or install the Easyfundraising reminder on chrome so that it pops up when you start shopping on an eligible site.
The payout is generous and well worth considering if you can afford those extra seconds.

Direct debit
Setting up a direct debit is another very supportive way of giving. Even modest monthly amounts help to underpin the Trust’s progress through the next phase. Become a Forerunner Patron by choosing the monthly amount you would like to donate and the direct debit will be set up with the leading direct debit provider, GoCardless.
If you would like to donate a monthly amount not listed on the drop down menu or have any other questions contact us HERE.
making a gift in your will
Our Pioneer Patron legacy donors stand to make a substantial difference to the Childhood Cancer Research Trust without effecting lifetime financial needs.
Leaving bequests totalling 10% of your net estate to one or several charities changes your inheritance tax rate from 40% to 36%. This means that on an estate of £1,000,000 charities could benefit from a total of £50,000 while beneficiaries would only forgo the sum of £12,000. In this scenario, the gift is worth 4 times what is deducted from the estate.
| No charitable bequests | 10% bequest to charity |
Gross estate | 1,000,000 | 1,000,000 |
Less nil rate band | 325,000 | 325,000 |
Less residence nil rate band | 175,000 | 175,000 |
Net estate | 500,000 | 500,000 |
10% Charitable donation | 0 | 50,000 |
Taxable estate | 500,000 | 450,000 |
Less IHT at 40% & 36% | 200,000 | 162,000 |
Remaining estate | 800,000 | 788,000 |
For those who have not been in a financial position to give now, we are extremely grateful for the legacy bequests that take advantage of this tax efficiency.
If you have been left a gift in someone else’s will, you can also forward a gift in their will through a deed of variation.
