Are you referring to VAT refunds? If so, see here:

If you mean the airport taxes on an actual ticket, if you’re flying out of Heathrow you have no option but to pay. Can you originate elsewhere?
If you’re redeeming miles, try to avoid British Airways miles, as those have the highest carrier imposed fees

Yeah, there’s no way to avoid UK APD taxes unless you’re only connecting at LHR.
