Are you interested in volunteering at DCDR? *
You can find out about volunteering and what you can do on our railway by visiting our website.

You don't need any particular background to work with us – most of our volunteers learn their railway-related skills through first-hand experience. Our volunteers come from across the island of Ireland, including from Belfast, Dublin, and Derry/Londonderry, and there's no minimum time commitment.
Do you want your membership to be paperless?
Due to high postage and printing costs, members must opt in if they want physical membership cards. Members who don't opt in will receive all necessary documents by email rather than by post. You can use your membership confirmation email as an alternative to your membership card.

Gift Aid declaration
If you are a current UK taxpayer, you can boost the value of your donations to us by 25%. We can claim this 25% from the tax that you pay for the current tax year. This applies to any future donations, as well as to any donations that you've made to the Downpatrick and County Down Railway over the past four years.

By checking the box below, you confirm that:
  • You want us to claim Gift Aid on any future donations to DCDR, and any donations you've made to DCDR over the past four years
  • You are a UK taxpayer 
  • You understand that if you pay less income tax and/or capital gains tax than the total amount of Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year, it is your responsibility to pay any difference.
Please notify us by email or in writing if you want to cancel this declaration, if you change your name or your home address, or if you no longer pay sufficient tax on your income and/or capital gains to be eligible for Gift Aid. If you pay income tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your self-assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.
