Payroll Giving

Want to know how your donations are helping? When you start donating to WDC through your salary, you can opt in to receive regular email updates to learn about the fantastic work that you are helping to achieve with your donation.

In 2022, supporters that donated to WDC via Payroll Giving raised over £30,000 for the conservation of whales, dolphins and protecting their giant ocean home. Gifts through Payroll Giving are vital to keeping research projects, volunteer networks and educational outreach teams running all year round!

If you want to start donating to WDC through your salary, check if your employer already has a Payroll Giving scheme in place. If this is something they offer, they should be able to set up regular donations through your salary for you. If there is any change to your circumstances and you can no longer donate, just let your payroll team know and they can stop your donations.

If Payroll Giving is completely new to your employer, encourage them to register with an approved Payroll Giving Agency. These are registered and approved companies that process employee donations to charitable organisations.

Providing employees with the option to give to charitable organisations through their salary saves them money and allows them to make a difference through their work. Providing a Payroll Giving scheme to employees also increases your organisation’s Corporate Social Responsibility.

Setting up a Payroll Giving scheme couldn’t be simpler. Contact a HMRC-approved Payroll Giving Agency and they will help and support you to set up a scheme.

Once the scheme is set up, you can advertise this to your employees and encourage them to support the causes they love for less. Offering employer match funding can also help to support your employees make a bigger difference for their chosen charities.
