GIFT AID

Please note, the Gift Aid declaration below applies if you choose to select YES in the Gift Aid box on your online Application Form, or if you intend to give Gift Aid in the future. If you do not select Gift Aid, and you do not intend to give Gift Aid in the future, then you can disregard the following Gift Aid statement.

I would like Southampton U3A (registered charity no. 1057642) to treat as a Gift Aid donation my annual subscription and subsequent payments I make from the date of this declaration until I notify you otherwise. I pay UK Income Tax each year at least equal to the tax reclaimed and I will notify you if I cease to do so.

EMAIL ADDRESS

Southampton U3A will only use your email address in relation to our administration and associated activities, but it will be the main method of communication.

EMERGENCY CONTACT NUMBER

We encourage all members to provide an emergency contact number of someone who is unlikely to be participating in a U3A activity at the same time as yourself.  This will only be used in case of emergency during U3A activities (e.g. someone taken ill, or had an accident).

MEMBER DETAILS RETENTION

By submission of the online joining form you agree to the inclusion of your details in the Southampton U3A membership website database. The database will only be used for administration purposes. Your details will be removed if you cease to be a member.
