As the CTA is a registered charity, UK members further benefit the Association by means of GiftAid.
Please read this declaration before saying "YES - claim Gift Aid".
Please treat the enclosed subscription (and, if applicable, donation) as a Gift Aid donation. I confirm I have paid or will pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax for each tax year (6 April to 5 April) that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities and Community Amateur Sports Clubs (CASCs) that I donate to will reclaim on my gifts for that tax year. I understand that other taxes such as VAT and Council Tax do not qualify. I understand the charity will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I have given. I want the CTA to treat all relevant payments from the date of this declaration as Gift Aid donations, until I notify you otherwise.
Registered Charity No: 1100702

If you prefer not to use on-line services, you can still join by post. Just print and complete the PDF application form and post it to the Membership Secretary with your cheque or payment advice.
