Community Amateur Sports Club scheme

The Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC) scheme was established after prolonged campaigning by CCPR and its members. The scheme enables grassroots sports clubs to register for 80% mandatory rate relief and to claim Gift Aid on certain types of donation made to them.

More than 4,000 clubs have registered as CASCs and claimed savings of over £20m. CCPR is still working hard on CASCs - both to promote the scheme to clubs which haven't yet joined and to strengthen the benefits of membership. More information can be found at www.cascinfo.co.uk, a site CCPR has developed to provide the definitive information portal about the scheme.
