Payroll Giving

Payroll giving is an easy and convenient method for employees to donate money to a charity. 

It is up to your employer to set up the Payroll Giving scheme, but each employee can decide how much they wish to donate. Payroll giving is flexible, and tax-efficient in that the money donated is not subjected to tax.

Payroll giving is free and simple to set up regardless of the size of your business. Set up payroll giving by getting in touch with a Payroll Giving agency; the UK government provides this approved list of agencies here: www.gov.uk/payroll-giving

Some agencies will charge an administration fee. This is often taken out of the employees’ donations, however, an employer can choose to pay this instead so that the charities receive the entire donation. Any questions surrounding this should be directed to your payroll giving agency.

There are many benefits to setting up a payroll giving scheme with an agency, from our charity, your employees, and your business as a whole:

• Regular donations

• No gift aid administration needed 

• Increased donation amounts because of the tax relief offered, 

Payroll giving benefits for employees:

• Doing a good thing

• Simple way to donate.

• Charity donations that go further with added tax relief 

• Sense of togetherness.

A company will see a number of benefits as a result of setting up a payroll giving scheme. These include:

• Improved team spirit

• corporate social responsibility

• Recognition and reputation enhancement -Your commitment will also be recognised by The Quality Mark Scheme and National Payroll Giving Excellence Awards.
