Tell us if you are eligible I am a UK tax payer and pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax at least equal to the tax that can be reclaimed on my donation.
I do not pay tax and/or this statement does not apply to me.

* Tax claimed by The Open University
- The OU will reclaim 28p of tax on every £1 you gave up to April 2008.
