gift aid visitor

At the Fishbourne Roman palace you can pay for admission using the gift aid visitor scheme and for the price of normal admission they give you a season ticket for the year.

Gift aid visitor scheme seems to be new and allows you to give a donation to a charity in lieu of admission and they then either have to charge you 10%more or grant*admission rights to the property for a twelve month period whenever the property is open to the public in that period, for example through a season ticket or a membership scheme*

Does anyone know of any other places that are doing this?

    If you gift aid your admission at Leeds castle in Kent, the tickets are then valid for a year. Good for them, and a great return saving for us as it's quite dear to get in.
