How you can support your hospital through payroll giving

Did you know you could give less than £1 per month to support Warrington and Halton Teaching Hospitals (WHH) via payroll giving?

By donating the spare pennies from your monthly salary to WHH Charity, your kind gesture can help make a big difference for our patients and their families, as well as our staff.

From creating a sensory room in the Children’s Ward and salon for dementia patients, to building new mental health and wellbeing facilities and supporting staff development, we provide those added touches that go beyond what the NHS can offer.

 

What is payroll giving?

The Microhive initiative gives both WHH staff members and larger corporate businesses in Warrington and Halton a unique opportunity to support the vital work of our hospital charity through easy and affordable payroll giving.

By contributing a small amount from your monthly salary (between 1p and 99p), we can create a powerful collective impact that supports our patients and NHS colleagues.

How Warrington and Halton Teaching Hospitals staff can get involved

As a member of WHH you can join colleagues by taking part in our payroll giving initiative and donating the spare pennies from your payslip.

Microhive (formerly known as Pennies from Heaven), is an easy and affordable way to contribute, as each donation will never be more than 99p per month.

Microhive collects small amounts of spare change directly from your salary automatically when you get paid.

 

How it works

For example, if your monthly pay is £850.31, you’ll receive £850, and the 31p spare change will go to WHH Charity. If you are paid £1,633.63, you will take home £1,633 and donate 63p. Donations can range from 1pm to 99p depending on your monthly salary.

 

Why join?

  • Small change, big difference: Over time, these micro-donations grow and can have a real, lasting impact on the work of WHH Charity and the patients, families, and staff we support.
  • Effortless giving: Automatic deductions make it easy, and your donations are combined with others for greater impact.
  • Every penny counts: The money we raise directly benefits colleagues, from supporting mental health and wellbeing to improving facilities and much more.
