At Living Streets, we are the voice for pedestrians - championing those who often go unheard when it comes to reimagining our public spaces. 

We campaign for safer streets, better crossings and clear pavements, so we can all enjoy the benefits of walking and wheeling more. 

Walking is fundamental to our quality of life, impacting everything from our health to the environment. That's why we’re committed to ensuring it’s a choice everyone can make safely and confidently. Together, we’re working to improve our streets, reduce road deaths and congestion, enhance health and air quality.

Absolutely. When you sign up to become a member, we give you the option to Gift Aid your donation. Gift Aid is reclaimed by the charity from the tax you pay for the current tax year boosting your eligible donations by 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 that you donate.

To qualify for Gift Aid, you must be a UK taxpayer and understand that if you pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all your eligible donations in that tax year, it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self-Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your code.

You can sign up to boost your membership donation by confirming you are a UK taxpayer and would like Living Streets to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations you have made in the last four years, as well as any future donations, until you notify us otherwise.
