answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2017 answer text <p>The UK is the most generous place in Europe and one of the most generous places in the world.

Tax relief is offered when donations are made through Gift Aid, when donating land, property, shares, or if gifts are left to charity in a will. Relief is also available for any individual or company who donates cultural artefacts through the Cultural Gift Scheme.</p><p> </p><p>At the Giving Roundtables held in 2016, the Government heard about opportunities to increase charitable giving by higher-rate taxpayers. Further announcements about those opportunities will follow.</p><p>The £4m Libraries: Opportunities for Everyone innovation fund, managed by Arts Council England on behalf of DCMS, was set up to pilot library service projects that provide benefit disadvantaged people and places in England. These pilots will be tracked and evaluated, with a view to encouraging wider adoption and investment in those which prove most successful.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 25/07/2017 10:27:46 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
