Holidays are good for you!
John McDonald, FHA's director,
recommends the new book from Richard Layard on Happiness.
"This book arrived on my desk at a very opportune time.
As we look to understand the benefits of holidays for
disadvantaged families better, Professor Layard, an
economist at the London School of Economics and a leading
light in current government thinking, makes a case for
basing policy on how it affects "greater happiness" rather than
Gross Domestic Product would help build a better society.
"For anyone interested
in understanding a little more about the benefits of
holidays, this book may well prove to be very illuminating."
Remember using these
links to Amazon will help raise funds for the Family Holiday
Association.

Gift Aid
(download a Gift Aid Declaration here)
 If you are a UK taxpayer, paying income tax or capital
gains tax, you can make your gifts worth almost 30 per cent
more, at no extra cost to you. For every £10 donated, the
Family Holiday Association can claim an extra £2.82 from the
Inland Revenue. All you have to do is check the Gift Aid box
when you give online or by post.
If you are a higher rate tax payer you can reclaim, on
your tax return to the Inland Revenue, the difference
between basic rate and higher rate tax which is currently
18%. For example, if you donated £50 you would reclaim
£11.54 in tax. Your donation will effectively cost you
£38.46 and we would receive £64!
Find out how your gift can count for more with our gift
aid calculator.
If your tax circumstances change please let us know in
writing and we will amend our records. If you have any
queries then please e-mail
info@fhaonline.org.uk
or call our office on 020 7436 3304

Leaving
a legacy: why make a will?
Every year thousands of people in the UK die without leaving
a Will. They have no say about the money and belongings they
leave behind. This can cause problems and anxiety for
relatives and friends, and the Inland Revenue may take a
large proportion of their assets.
By writing a Will you make your wishes known and can ensure
your money and possessions are given to those you choose.
Any gifts to charity are free of tax, and are deducted from
your estate before Inheritance Tax is calculated.
If you already have a Will, please consider adding a codicil
to include The Family Holiday Association. John
Carter, the former TV presenter of Wish you were here...!
has written a leaflet all about leaving a legacy to the FHA.
If you would like a copy please e-mail
info@fhaonline.org.uk and we will put a hard copy in the
mail to you or
you could down load a pdf of the leaflet by clicking here.
