Monthly Donations are deducted from the gross salary and paid
direct to any UK registered charity.
This means that the charity receives the donation
plus the tax e.g. a £1 donation would mean the
Charity receives £1.25 for standard rate tax payers and £1.66 for
higher rate tax payers.
The minimum net monthly donation is
£1. Download the Towergate Payroll Giving
form. The Gross donation is the amount the charity will
receive and is calculated according to the level of tax you pay.
See the table below. Remember, Towergate will match donations to
Partner charities. To calculate how much more your favourite
charity will receive please select the amount you wish to pay from
the Payroll Giving

What our Staff Say
"I had been donating to my designated charity
for many years via direct debit and decided to switch over to
donating via payroll as I simply recognised that the charity would
get more out of my donation if I paid that way."
Craig Provan - Fusion Glasgow
"I prefer to use the payroll facility
essentially for ease of administration. There is also the
psychological aspect of the donation being deducted from my gross
salary so I don't think of it as a monthly outgoing (on the basis
of what you never had, you never miss)." Robert
Calderwood -Towergate Leeds
"I found it very easy to do. It took me 5
minutes to complete a form and Towergate did everything
else." Avril Fenwick - Towergate
Teesside
