Payroll giving
Payroll Giving is a simple, efficient and flexible scheme, which allows employees to give on a tax-free basis to a charity of their choice.
It means you can support your chosen charity every month, giving as much as you wish. You can also increase or decrease the amount or stop if you wish to at any time.
Your pledge | It costs you (standard rate tax payer) | It costs you (higher rate tax payer) |
£5 | £4.00 | £3.00 |
£7.50 | £6.00 | £4.50 |
£10 | £8.00 | £6.00 |
£20 | £16.00 | £12.00 |

Many companies now match staff donations to charity. It as an excellent way for companies to demonstrate their commitment to the community and building good relations with employees.
Any matched donations your company makes will be allowed as a deduction against company profits for tax purposes.
