The importance of Payroll Giving

Payroll giving, also known as Workplace Giving, plays an important role in providing a quick, easy and tax efficient way to regularly support charities you are passionate about, straight from your salary.

Through Payroll Giving, we can receive your support in a tax effective way as your charity donations are taken from your gross salary before income tax is deducted. It allows your donation to go further while costing you less and it provides our schools with a regular income to help us plan ahead more effectively.

Supporting us by Payroll Giving means that if you give £10 a month, we will receive £10 but it will only cost you £8 on a basic rate tax, £6 on 40% tax, or £5.50 on 45% tax.

Anyone who pays UK tax through PAYE can donate through Payroll Giving. It also allows many employers to match your donation, meaning your gift goes twice as far!

Ask your employer or pension provider if they run a Payroll Giving scheme and nominate us or call us on 0207 629 3050 for more details.
