Toby Chenery

On the 25th February 2025, our lives changed forever. Toby, our beautiful 23-year-old boy, had gone out with his mates on Monday evening and played football. He returned home and went to bed, a seemingly healthy young man just as he had thousands of times before. Only none of us could be prepared for the fact that, at some time during that night’s sleep, Toby sadly passed away.

Toby was an incredibly kind and generous soul. He would always help anyone where he could, and since his passing, lots of stories have been retold of times when he had gone out of his way to help others.

We have decided, as a family, to continue his legacy by setting up this memorial fundraising page in his honour.

It is our intention to raise enough money so that we can hold a screening in our community.

Claim Gift Aid

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Cardiac Risk in the Young to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Cardiac Risk in the Young we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Tell me more »

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Cardiac Risk in the Young to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Cardiac Risk in the Young will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Cardiac Risk in the Young receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
