PAYE Payroll Giving
Payroll Giving is a way of giving money to charity without paying tax on it. It must be paid through PAYE from your wages or pension.
The amount of tax relief you as an employee get depends on the rate of tax you pay.
The donation will be taken from your pay before tax but after National Insurance.
The company makes deductions each time they run payroll then sends the donations to their Payroll Giving Agency to pass the donations on to CHSA.
The company needs to set up the scheme through a below Payroll Giving Agency and but the company will run the scheme.
Payroll Giving Agencies:
In School Events: Refreshments, Raffles and Pre-loved Uniform Sales
Look out for our in school fundraising - new volunteers are always welcome, we are a small team and any help you can give would be really appreciated:

When CHSA has raised enough money we ask school if they would like us to help them with the cost of a large project or if they would prefer the individual departments to bid for smaller amounts of money. We ask school to satisfy two out of the three following criteria when applying for funding:
- Maximise the number of students who benefit from the award
- Enriches or enhances the learning experience of students
- Sustainability - future students will also benefit
Volunteer
Please volunteer as little as 3 hours per year.
The CHSA wouldn't exist without volunteers. We are all juggling a work/home life balance, but find joining CHSA activities gives a sense of community within the school that is so often lost once children move up to High School. Not only that, but volunteering for a charitable organisation has proven mental health benefits.
We need support from all sorts of people - maybe you enjoy selling raffle tickets or baking cakes or maybe you'd prefer to be applying for grants and finding out about charity regulations. Please contact us for more info. Everyone is welcome.
- Coming up with & actioning ideas for fundraising
- Asking for raffle donations

- Helping with Pre-loved uniform sales
- Grant Applications

We Couldn’t Do It Without You!
We also need volunteers to come to our committee meetings. We are a small but friendly group who meet about 5 or 6 times a year. We discuss up and coming events and when we have raised enough money, we discuss how it should be distributed.
- Chairperson
- Vice Chairperson
- Treasurer
- Secretary
- Assistant to Treasurer
- Stock Organiser
