Payroll giving
A great way to give more.
How Payroll Giving works
Payroll Giving allows you to make regular or one-off donations
to charities of your choice directly from your pay packet or
occupational pension. Your donations are made before Income Tax is
deducted and you only pay tax on what's left. This means that you
are given tax relief on your donation immediately - and at your
highest rate of tax.
