LETTERS – Can you answer questions?

Perhaps some of your erudite letter subscribers can answer the following questions for me.
Qualifying tax relief on donations to charities (25p back for each £1 donation) must add up to a massive contribution each year. I have never seen this figure stated anywhere.
Also, regarding charities which specifically help countries abroad – are their tax refunds included in our foreign aid budget or dealt with separately?
If anyone knows the figures I would be very interested as I am sure many other citizens would.
