Staff benefits update – Giving Tuesday special

27 Nov 2014

In the lead up to Christmas it’s another bumper staff benefits update for you with many local discounts to save you money and an offer to help you maximise your charitable giving

Helping you give back….

As part of the global day of giving on #GivingTuesday (2 December), charities worldwide are encouraging people to come together to show the world why it’s good to give.

Whether it’s making a donation, volunteering your time or just spreading the word at the start of the Christmas shopping season, #GivingTuesday is a call to action for everyone who wants to give something back.

For this international event Workplace Giving UK will add an additional £10 to your first donation when you join our Workplace Giving Scheme for the first time between 1 and 5 December (terms and conditions apply).
