As energy costs continue to place pressure on budgets, many churches, charities, and not-for-profit organisations are looking for ways to reduce unnecessary expenditure. One area that often causes confusion is VAT on energy bills.
Recent changes and ongoing complexities around VAT rates mean that some organisations may be paying more than they need to, while others may be unsure whether they are receiving the correct VAT treatment at all.
Could Your Organisation Be Paying Too Much?
Many charities and not-for-profits are eligible for reduced VAT rates on their energy supplies, but the rules can be complex and vary depending on how buildings are used. Understanding your eligibility and ensuring your supplier has the correct information could lead to significant savings over time.
If you've ever wondered:
Are we paying the correct VAT rate on our electricity and gas bills?
Could our church or charity qualify for VAT relief?
What evidence do we need to provide to suppliers?
Are there opportunities to reduce our overall energy costs?
Then this upcoming webinar could be well worth your time.
