Give as you live

Payroll giving

Have you thought about Payroll Giving? If you, your friends, or your family are in paid employment, it's a simple way to make regular donations to Long Covid UK straight from your pay.

We've put together a letter template and instruction form with everything you and your employer need.

  • Your donation is taken from your pay before Income Tax is calculated, which means it costs you less than you might think. For example, if you're a 20% taxpayer, 80% of your donation comes from your salary and 20% comes from the tax that would otherwise have gone to HMRC.

  • Your donation goes further and costs you less. You're completely in control. You can increase, reduce, or stop your donation at any time, at no cost to you. Even better, many employers will match what you give, doubling the impact of your contribution.

  • If your employer already has a Payroll Giving (or Give As You Earn) scheme:

    1. Let your employer know you'd like to donate to Long Covid UK

    2. Fill in the instruction form and pass it to your payroll team

    1. Have a chat with your HR department about setting one up

    2. They can contact a Payroll Giving Agency who will get it up and running at no cost to the employer

    3. Once the scheme is in place, fill in the instruction form and pass it to your payroll team

Online Surveys

A simple way to raise money from home. Some survey sites let you donate directly to charity, and many tell you how long each survey will take, which is great if you're pacing.
