ShareGift

Shareholders with a small number of shares, the value of which makes it uneconomic to sell them, may wish to consider donating them to the charity ShareGift (registered charity 1052686), which specialises in using such holdings for charitable benefit. A ShareGift transfer form can be obtained from Equiniti, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex, BN99 6DH.
