Charities Trust Information

Thank you for your enquiry into Charities Trust and the services we offer. On this page you will find all the information that you'll need to encourage you to, hopefully, begin working alongside Charities Trust in order to set up and administer a hugely successful Payroll Giving scheme.

Charities Trust supports, promotes and administers Payroll Giving schemes for some of the most prestigious companies throughout the UK. Similarly, we offer the same quality of service to smaller family-led concerns. Our commitment to providing first-class service to both the fundraising company and also the charities who benefit has allowed us to become one of the largest and most respected Payroll Giving agencies in the country.

Here, we will outline some of the services we offer.

Payroll Giving

If you run a Payroll Giving scheme you need a Payroll Giving Agency. Charities Trust, working in partnership with the employer, will establish and promote your scheme within your organisation. We will then carry out the full administration of breaking down and distributing donations to the charities of the donors choosing. For more information, click here.

Xtra Factor

It is 20 years since Payroll Giving was introduced to employees as a tax effective way to donate directly from their wages, this service has not changed until NOW!!!

Charities Trust, regarded as the most effective and creative Payroll Giving agency in the UK, is enabling people to give their tax-effective donations the Xtra Factor. Revolutionary, raising extra millions for Charity and all at no extra charge. Learn more here.

Freedom Account

A freedom account is you own personal charity account, allowing you to manage your charitable donations as flexibly as you would your transactions with a traditional high street bank. Once topped up, you can donate via cheque and even online. Visit our section on Freedom accounts here.
