Monthly and Annual Giving

Giving monthly or annually by Direct Debit is a simple and extremely valuable way of making a donation to us. Not only will you be contributing towards your chosen fund, but with guaranteed regular donations the Governors can use the projected values in order to plan for our future.

We recognise that many friends cannot necessarily make large gifts; we have designed the monthly and annual giving scheme in order that you can donate an amount you feel comfortable with on a regular basis. You can pay any amount you wish from £10 per month to £100 or even more.

Payroll Giving

Payroll Giving lets you make regular or one-off donations directly from your earnings. Donations are made out of income before Income Tax is taken off. This means that donors are given tax relief on their donation immediately - and at your highest rate of tax.

The scheme is managed by HMRC and you can find further details about Payroll Giving on the HMRC website.

Matching Gifts

Some companies encourage charitable giving by employees and will match your gift to double the donation. As with Payroll Giving donations are made out of income before Income Tax is taken off.

To find out if your company participates in the Matching Gift Scheme please contact your Personnel Department.
