Can you help?
With Money....
We would hope that everyone would want to support the aims of the Wye & Usk Foundation for healthy, clean rivers with rich wildlife and fish stocks supporting a vibrant local economy. As a result of our efficient way of using funds, one of the best ways is to become a Patron or a Donor of the Foundation. No amount is too small (or too large!) and every penny really makes a difference. We recommended the following donating structure.
-
Donor - £30 per year (£2.50 per month)
-
Patron - £150 per year
-
Life Patron - Single payment of £500
And as a charity the Wye & Usk Foundation can reclaim tax relief of 28% on the donations we receive. If you are a high rate taxpayer, you can claim additional relief using the gift aid form.
Currently due to the high gearing mechanism of the projects we are running, every £1 that is donated to the Foundation means we can spend £10 on restoring the rivers.
Patrons and Donors receive a welcome pack, newsletters and our regular updates. Patrons and Life Patrons receive free admission to all Foundation events, river walks and presentations, and by arrangement we can organise individual site visits to see our work in action. If you are an angler, we can email you the latest river conditions and prospects as conditions change throughout the year.
Commercial sponsors might like to consider giving their name to a particular project such as restoring a spawning stream or a fish pass.
