Payroll Giving
If you are employed, Payroll Giving is a simple and tax-free way of offering us your support by making regular donations directly from your gross salary. Every time you are paid, an amount of your choosing is deducted by the payroll office, before tax is taken, and given to Speakability. This means that it costs you less to donate, but the value of your gift is increased.
If you wish to donate through Payroll Giving, check with your HR department to find out if they are registered with a Payroll Giving scheme. If there is a scheme in place, you can then nominate Speakability for a donation. For more information on payroll giving, visit the Inland Revenue website.
Gift of Shares
By making a gift of shares to Speakability, you will receive income tax relief. For example, if you give shares worth £1000 to Speakability and pay income tax at 40%, you could reduce your tax bill by £400. If you would like further information, please visit the Inland Revenue website.
Give in memory of a loved one
Why not celebrate the life of a loved one by making a gift to Speakability in their name? In this way, you will be able to pay tribute to their life and memory, whilst helping to improve the lives of people with Aphasia.
A request that friends and relatives make a donation to Speakability rather than sending funeral flowers is a very positive way of supporting our work. Flowers do not last more than a few days. However, by helping another person to overcome the barriers they face from losing the ability to speak, you can make a huge and lasting impact on their life.
Celebration Giving
We have been incredibly touched by people who, when celebrating a special birthday or anniversary, have chosen to ask their friends if they will make a gift donation to Speakability rather than spend money on something that they don't really need. If you would like to know more about this, get in touch and we'll explain how it works.
Gift us the proceeds of an event
If you sing in a choir or play in a band, why not organise a special concert to raise awareness and funds for Speakability? We can support you and promote your concert or event on our website.
Alternatively, why not hold a coffee morning for friends or a dinner party and show the Speakability video? You could ask friends to make a voluntary donation to our work or to pay a small entrance charge. Please feel free to discuss your ideas with us.
