The special donorflex Gift Aid seminar is now fully booked.

House Full signs have been put out more than a fortnight before donorflex's special Gift Aid seminar takes place at Aston Business School Conference Centre.

We're already receiving insight from users about the kind of Gift Aid questions they'd like to be answered at the Friday, January 29, event.

If there's a particular issue that you'd like to see covered, please e-mail and let us know what it is.

Don't forget, as the agenda below explains, we're delighted that one of HMRC's most experienced charity auditors, Mark Toner, will be helping us set the scene and answer any Gift Aid-related questions:

  • 10.00am: Registration
  • 10.30am: Welcome and donorflex introduction
  • 10.45am: Mark Toner, HMRC auditor: Mark will give a presentation on the dos and don'ts of Gift Aid, and he'll take questions from the floor on any aspect of the subject - most importantly the impending changes to the six-year rule that's bringing us together
  • 11.45am: Refreshments
  • 12.00am: How donorflex manages Gift Aid: Jo Davies and Steve Mason will prepare you for the focused afternoon session with an hour looking at how donorflex manages Gift Aid, from recording a declaration status all the way to the day you record the payment of your claim by HMRC
  • 1.00pm: Lunch
  • 1.45pm: Six becomes four... we'll introduce you to a new clutch of donorflex reports and guide you through the prescribed procedure for making sure that you make the very most of your supporters' Gift Aid potential before the six-year rule passes into history
  • 2.45pm Refreshments
  • 3.00pm: Six becomes four... we conclude our presentation, provide you with the all-important takeaways so that you can hit the road running when you return to your office, and offer a chance to ask some questions
  • 3.45pm: Carriages. It's our intention to close proceedings so that you can be ahead of the rush

We'll be sending out an alert via dmailer closer to the date, but bear in mind that – if you want – you can update your booking(s) by asking your donorflex Liaison Manager to log in to the Client menu, click the Events and bookings link, and head for the Gift Aid seminar booking form.

Finally, delegates at any of the past three Children's Hospices UK conferences will already know their way to the conference centre at Aston Triangle, Birmingham B4 7ET. Whether you're travelling by road or rail, it's not hard to find.
