Be an Angel

Join the host of Greenbelt Angels and help to sustain the festival's future.

If you think you could make a regular monthly donation to the Festival, please take a moment to download this form and fill it in or contact the office for a hard copy.

Whatever you can manage will help us. But please bear in mind that it costs us £8 a year to process your giving. Most of our Angels give gifts ranging from £10 to £50 a month and all their Angel giving is administered through CAF (the Charities Aid Foundation). CAF (the Charities Aid Foundation) is contracted by Greenbelt to collect monies and Gift Aid tax from regular Angel donations via standing orders or direct debits. If you have signed the Gift Aid statement on the Angel form and subsequently change tax status it is your responsibility to inform Greenbelt and CAF of this.

So, don't forget the make sure that your giving as an Angel is gift-aided. That way, for every £1 you give us, the Chancellor gives us 28p extra! Thanks.

(NB: If you have signed the Gift Aid statement on the angel form and subsequently change tax status it is your responsibility to inform Greenbelt and CAF of this.)

So, join with over 1,200 other Angels already giving generously to support the Festival to help us see it towards its 40th year!

Timescales
It can take up to 6 weeks from you sending in your form for it to be processed by Greenbelt and CAF. Please remember this when checking your bank statements to see if payments have gone out of your account.

Changes
If you change address or bank please send us written or email notification of your full new and old details, so we can keep our database clean of duplicates. We will then notify CAF for you.

If you want to change the amount you give you need to fill in a new Angel response form (see the right-hand menu bar for download).

When changing a standing order or direct debit please remember to cancel any that you had previously set up with your bank. Only you are allowed to cancel a standing order or direct debit. We cannot do this on your behalf. You have to authorise a standing order or direct debit personally through your bank. Direct debits or standing orders cannot be cancelled by Greenbelt or CAF.

If your payments stop or do not show on your bank statement:
Please check with your bank first.

CAF will contact you up to three times to inform you if a payment is not going through or is being withheld by your bank. And finally, Greenbelt will also contact you.
