Moseley Community Development Trust (CDT)

Drawing created for the CDT by Clare Younger www.clareyounger.co.uk

We need your help to continue our work

We're aiming high but we can get there with your help

We want an independent organisation to ensure Moseley continues to be a vibrant place to live no matter what the outside pressures. We plan to support the regeneration of the village now and in to the future.

We're here to make Moseley a better place

Through a range of social, economic and environmental projects we hope Moseley will become a better neighbourhood for everybody.

Why have a Development Trust?

Moseley has joined almost 300 other communities in the UK that have a Development Trust, see www.dta.org.uk. Members of the Moseley Society and Moseley Forum joined with Moseley District Churches Housing Association to create a sustainable organisation that is community owned, led and managed.

We're not a traditional charity

Moseley CDT is a community enterprise that is seeking to become financially independent. Charities often rely on donations. These are important to us, but we plan to start earning for ourselves and be less reliant on giving in the future. This will help us to remain independent and develop services for local people.

Ways to give

Make a donation

By cheque or postal order payable to "Moseley Community Development Trust" posted to The Post Office Building, 149 -153 Alcester Road, Moseley, Birmingham B13 8JP. Set up a standing order, making regular contributions to our work, this will help us plan in to the future. You will need to complete the standing order mandate form and send it in to us.

Gifts of cash - Gift Aid

This is simple an effective way of making your donation go further. Just complete the gift aid declaration form and it allow Moseley CDT to reclaim tax you have paid on your gift to us. You can make payments small or large by cash, cheque or postal order or debit / credit card.

Gifts of shares

For some time capital gains tax relief has been available on gifts of listed shares and securities to a charity. Since April 2000 you can also claim income tax relief on the market value of quoted shares at the time of gift. Unlike Gift Aided cash donations, all the tax relief comes to you, the donor.

Payroll giving

This is a way of giving an amount of money each week or month from your pay. It is a tax-effective way for employees, non-executive directors and those receiving a company pension to give a regular amount to Moseley CDT directly from their income. It can also be used for a one-off gift.

Legacies

We appreciate your family comes first but sometimes there is the opportunity to leave something behind that will keep on working for the benefit of Moseley; you could consider including a donation in your will to support our work. Some may find it satisfying that they are able to help keep Moseley special, through a donation of this kind.
