    Gifting a membership in a loved one’s name is a fantastic way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary or special occasion.

    To gift a membership please contact us.

  • Benefits and Gift Aid

     

    Our Hero community includes all Polka supporters since 2021, whether they’ve donated, hosted a cake sale, run a marathon, or become a Polka Ambassador at school or work.

    You do not need to donate to be a Polka Hero but we really appreciate it if you can.

    Our Guardian and Super Hero Memberships include a benefits value, which reflects the actual cost of the subscription to the charity, and a suggested donation.

    Memberships can be purchased at the benefit value and the benefits listed within each level of membership can be purchased separately. Any additional amounts are donations and are therefore eligible for Gift Aid.

    If you would like to…

    • Buy one of the benefits listed above without a donation element
    • Or join the Polka Heroes without making a donation

    Please contact the Development Office on 020 8545 8368.
