Donating by Payroll Giving

Help us to continue our work for people affected by HIV. Thames Valley Positive Support is a registered charity – Your donations and legacies are our lifeblood. If you’re a tax payer, the Government will make your contribution to TVPS worth even more if you give through Payroll Giving. For further information please contact us.

Payroll Giving is a way for you to give regularly to a charity from your pay, and get tax relief on your gifts. The Government is adding a further 10% to all such donations for three year from April 2000. Your employer does not have to offer a payroll scheme, but you can ask if he/she would be willing to start one. Your employer can find out more about running a scheme by calling 0207 9014875. All you do is authorise your employer to deduct your gift from your pay. Every month your employer pays it over to a Payroll Giving agency approved by the Inland Revenue.

How do I get tax relief?
Because your employer deducts your gift from your pay or pension, before ‘Pay As You Earn’ tax is worked out, you pay tax only on the balance. The amount you pay in National Insurance is not affected.

Can I stop giving?
Yes, at any time. Simply tell your employer’s payroll department.
