Reclaim Gift Aid

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

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Koestler Arts 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 Koestler Arts will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

Our sell-out poetry event returned for another year!

Thanks to everyone who joined us for a wonderful evening of poetry and spoken word hosted by T.S Eliot Prize-winning poet and author, Joelle Taylor, with contributions from a range of artists and writers engaged with Koestler Arts, including former entrants.

The evening included readings of poems published in Koestler Voices: New Poetry from Prisons Vol.4 and a selection of other written work from this year’s Koestler awards.

This event was part of the programme for IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, our 2023 annual UK exhibition of fine art, craft, music, writing and spoken word, curated by Joelle Taylor, at Southbank Centre.
