The trust needs financial support to buy tools and materials to build and restore aircraft and exhibits, and to buy aircraft parts. The trust is grateful for the donation of parts, materials and for assistance with the manufacture of heavier metal components. Corporate donors may be able to offset donations to charity against corporation tax. Individual donors who pay UK Income Tax may complete a Gift Aid Declaration and a sum equal to 28% of their donation may be recovered by the trust from the Inland Revenue.

A Memorial Book is to be maintained in which donors may have a dedication recorded to any person, unit etc they indicate.

A special thanks goes to Steve Wright, the Webmaster of the previous Assault Glider Website.
Steve's site is at www.GliderPilotRegiment.org.uk
