NOT JUST FOR BIG BUSINESSES OR BIG CHARITIES

Did you know it’s not just for large businesses? And it’s not just for supporting the big, well known charities. Any employer of any size can set up a scheme, and employees can individually decide who they donate to from the thousands of local and national causes all over Wales (and beyond).

BUT WHAT EXACTLY IS PAYROLL GIVING?

Payroll Giving is a government-backed scheme that allows employees to support their favourite charities in exchange for tax relief.

What makes the scheme stand out is that it benefits everyone involved. It makes giving cheaper for taxpayers, businesses can use it to enhance their social impact, and charities receive sustainable income to fund vital services communities rely on.

IMPROVE YOUR SOCIAL IMPACT

Payroll Giving supports your employees to give to the causes they care about most. Here’s what one employer said:

'At Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water, we’re proud to make giving back simple and meaningful through our Payroll Giving scheme. This initiative empowers colleagues to support causes they care about in a convenient, tax-efficient way. It’s more than a program - it reflects our shared values and our ongoing commitment to the communities we serve.'
