Lira Clinic Pader Clinic
TB Lab


We are supporting...

Health Clinics in Lira and Pader, Northern Uganda, which provide primary healthcare, including treatments for TB and malaria, immunisations and HIV-AIDS counselling, testing and treatment. We need at least £3,500 per month to meet our pledged support which helps provide much needed care to at least 350 people each month.

A number of our patients from Lira, Pader and our community-based programmes may require more complex medical care, including e.g. Cancer Care and surgery, which we can provide in Hope Ward, at International Hospital Kampla. Whilst our costs are subsidized by the hospital we still need to raise, on average, £300 for each patient treated.

A recent initiative is a charity funded Physiotherapy clinic in Hope Ward for which we have pledged £1,000 support this year.

Our Costs

All money received by Suubi Trust is used to support the work in Uganda. We make no deductions either from your contributions or from tax relief claimed through Gift Aid.

Our trustees are volunteers who do not charge for their time, or claim any payment or expenses. We have no administration costs.

Operational costs for Hope Ward and the charity clinics are subsidized by
Dr. Ian Clarke. Suubi Trust does not pay rent or contribute to the capital costs of establishing this required infrastructure.

Gift Aid

Make Your Donation Worth More – at NO extra cost to you!
No matter what the size of the gift that you make to Suubi Trust, we are able to reclaim an extra 28p from the Inland Revenue for every £1 you give.

How Does Gift Aid Work?
Once you have made your donation and completed a Gift Aid Declaration we are able to claim back the tax on your donation from the Inland Revenue meaning that if you donate £100, Suubi Trust receives £128.

This scheme applies to both one-off donations and to regular giving.

Who is Eligible for Gift Aid?
If you are a UK taxpayer paying income tax or capital gains tax at any rate you will be eligible to join the scheme.  You must ensure that you have paid tax to at least the value we are reclaiming within the tax year.

Information for Higher Rate Taxpayers
Suubi Trust can only reclaim tax on your gift at the basic rate. If you are a higher rate taxpayer, you can claim the difference between the higher rate of tax of 40% and the basic rate of tax of 22% in your Self Assessment return.

Since April 2004 you have been able to gift repayments to a charity of your choice. This means that your original gift could be worth even more to the charity.

For a higher rate tax payer this means a gift worth £128 to Suubi Trust will cost you only £77!

How to Join the Scheme
To join the scheme all you have to do is complete a Gift Aid Declaration when you make a donation to us. This can apply to a one off gift or all gifts that you plan to make now and in the future. 

This is a fantastic opportunity for you to put some of the tax you pay to a cause that will make a difference to people's lives. For more information email us at  Contact@SuubiTrust.org.uk.
