Having a regular and reliable income from the PTA is vital in helping the school with planning and budgeting, and so to support this, the STAGS School Fund was set up in 1986. Since then many hundreds of families have set up a regular donation by standing order, and also signed a Gift Aid declaration. Gift Aid declarations enable the Friends of STAGS to reclaim tax paid by the donor from HMRC, increasing the value of the donation by 25% without costing the donor anything extra.

Both the school and the Friends of STAGS would be extremely grateful for your ongoing support by making a regular donation to the STAGS School Fund. To become a regular donor, please complete the form below and the Gift Aid declaration if applicable, and set up a standing order to the following bank account:

Friends of St Albans Girls School  Account Number: 20801542 Sort Code: 20-74-09

Monthly Payment Date: any that you choose

Reference: please use your postcode plus house number, without any spaces

^{(Please note that this is not a Direct Debit that is collected automatically – the donor creates a standing order payment themselves via their own banking app/website etc)}

I want to Gift Aid my donations to the Friends of St Albans Girls School made today, in the past 4 years or in the future. I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference

In case of any queries about the School Fund, Gift Aid or setting up a Standing Order, please contact Leonie Brady via stagspta@gmail.com and you will be contacted within 7 days.
