ShareGift

 If you hold only a few shares and feel that it would be uneconomical or just not worthwhile to sell them then you could consider donating your shares to charity via ShareGift.

ShareGift, a registered charity no. 1052686, specialises in accepting donations of small numbers of shares.

Since its launch in 1996, ShareGift has given millions of pounds to hundreds of different UK charities.  Without ShareGift, this money would remain locked up in unwanted shares and would never otherwise reach charities.

To find out more visit www.ShareGIft.org or call 0207 930 3737 . Alternatively contact Capita Registrars who can help arrange the transfer of your shares.
