Dear all,
You may have picked up the odd mention in staff reports to the board or
passing conversation, but one of the pieces of work I'm responsible for is
the Charity's gift aid records and claims.
After delay getting our first claim through, then needing to update our
records with HMRC so the right people and bank details were on our record,
I'm ready to work on the outstanding data files for the claims for last
financial year.
However, it's a big job that can't really be automated - it involves
reformatting and then checking through spreadsheets with mixture of search
and replace and common sense to make sure the claim records we're
submitting are those of individuals (not companies) and include real name
data.
Is there someone who would be interested and able to help? It would require
at least a couple of days in the office next month - its not really
appropriate to do remotely and you would have to sigh an undertaking to
treat the data confidentially.
We can support some expenses here (travel, lunch/per diem) but I'm not sure
we could pay for accommodation - its therefore most probably an appeal to
those who are in/near london based to help.
Do let me know if you think this could be something you could do.
Thanks,
