Every month your salary is rounded down to the nearest pound with the pennies donated to the charity. For example if your monthly pay was £1050.28 then 28p would be donated. The most you could donate in a month would be 99p.

The scheme has the potential to make a big difference. Even though you would only be donating a small amount, you are part of a big team at Sheffield Children’s – there are currently around £3,500 staff employed here. If everyone in the Trust signed up and an average of 35p was donated each time, this would mean £1050 would be raised every month, or £12,600 every year!

If you’d like to donate your pennies, complete the sign-up form and send it to The Children’s Hospital Charity Office.

If you change your mind at any time you can opt out by contacting payroll.
