Payroll giving
Vol. I · § Give from your wage
Payroll Giving lets your donation leave your wage before tax, which means £10 to us costs as little as £6 to you. There is no Gift Aid form, no annual reconciliation — just a quiet, regular gift that arrives every payday.
§ I · Four steps
01
Most large UK employers do. The scheme is usually run through one of three HMRC-approved agencies: Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), Charitable Giving, or the Payroll Giving Agency.
02
Use our charity registration number 1199482 (England & Wales) or SC051427 (Scotland). Choose any monthly amount — there is no minimum and no maximum.
03
Your employer's payroll deducts the gift before calculating Income Tax, so the cost to you is less than the amount we receive. £10 to us costs you £8 (basic-rate) or £6 (higher-rate).
04
Roughly half of UK employers with a Payroll Giving scheme match donations — sometimes pound-for-pound. Always worth asking your HR team.
§ II · What it costs you
Figures are illustrative based on 2025/26 UK Income Tax bands. Your exact saving depends on your income, tax code and any Scottish-specific rates.
| Gift to us | Basic (20%) | Higher (40%) | Additional (45%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| £10 | £8.00 | £6.00 | £5.50 |
| £20 | £16.00 | £12.00 | £11.00 |
| £50 | £40.00 | £30.00 | £27.50 |
| £100 | £80.00 | £60.00 | £55.00 |
