Delegates will take away with them GAIN’s Gift Aid Recovery Rate Calculator. By filling this in and returning it to GAIN they will receive a summary evaluation which will indicate how effectively their Gift Aid processes and record-keeping are working. GAIN will also provide feedback on how they are performing relative to the rest of the group, the sector they operate in and the market as a whole.
The one-day course costs just £199 + VAT, and that includes refreshments and a buffet lunch.
