Information about gift aid and how you can receive it can be found on the HMRC website HERE
However you won't be able to get gift aid on anything where money is exchanged for goods or services. It has to be a gift donation. So someone writing a cheque to your charity with no strings attached could Gift Aid it. But they can't gift aid the cost of buying a ticket for an event as thats payment for a service, not a gift.
