What is Payroll Giving?
Payroll Giving is a way of donating to charity straight from your salary. It’s simple and effortless, except for finding the charity or charities that inspire you! The best part is, your donation is deducted automatically, before tax, which means the charity gets more from your donation without it costing you anymore.
It provides vital regular income to charities and allows you as the donor full control over your donation and when to start, change and stop donations.

Payroll Giving is the most impactful way to give to charity due to the huge tax benefits that you and our charities receive, so if you want to donate £10 to Charity X, you could actually give £12.50, £16.66 or £18.18, depending on your tax bracket, and it will still only cost you £10 in real terms.
