Charitable Giving or Payroll Giving
As an employee of Clarity Umbrella, we can offer you the opportunity to make regular charitable donations to a charity of your choice from your gross pay which gives you tax relief on the donation amount. This is done via a scheme called Payroll Giving.
We will administer your donations as part of our payroll process and update our chosen partner, Charitable Giving as we deduct and reconcile amounts for donations from the payroll.
In order to register for Payroll Giving, we will need you to complete and return the Employee Sign Up Form (downloadable here), this will need to be returned to both the email address on the base of the form and to info@clarityumbrella.co.uk in order for us to make the correct deductions.
Please note there is a standard administration charge for processing these deductions made by Charitable Giving. This is charged at 4% of each donation, per donation. This percentage will be taken from your donation value to cover these adminstration costs up to a maximum of £10 by Charitable Giving.

Payroll Giving Quality Mark Award 2023
Welcome to your 2023 Quality Mark Certificate!
Whether you are receiving this prestigious Government endorsed certificate for the first time, or like so many of our valued clients this is something that has become a regular part of your calendar – CONGRATULATIONS! We are proud to share that the 2023 Certificate boasts the new and official Association of Payroll Giving Organisations (APGO) trademarked Quality Mark Logo. Do remember to add this to your email signatures, stationery, and websites as it is the very best way to give your Payroll Giving success a ‘shout out’ and get the recognition you deserve for your efforts. We are grateful this year to the Charities Minister, Stuart Andrew MP for representing the Government with his signature.
Payroll Giving continues to be a lifeline to charities as the cost-of-living crisis continues to impact on both personal and business resources. We are so grateful to all our amazing employer clients and their generous employees for their continued support of the scheme – and it’s exciting to see participation growing as promotional activities in the workplace resume both physically and digitally. The last Financial Year has seen Charitable Giving process a record level of donations including several one-off very high value donations, and the uplift in new donors signing up to the scheme during Payroll Giving Month promotional activities (in February) exceeded all expectations. The very best news for beneficiary charities, the Payroll Giving community and all its stakeholders.
Charitable Giving continues to be committed to delivering an exceptional standard of service. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like information or advice on promoting your scheme, adding matching from corporate funds, or switching terms to pay fees on behalf of employees.
Our website www.charitablegiving.co.uk is a mine of information on all our products and services and our friendly and efficient team on hand to assist in finding a way that works for you and your budget – however large or small!
Thanks again for contributing to the success of Payroll Giving – it’s fantastic to be making a world of difference together!
Kind regards,
Clare – CEO
