Duncan Bannatyne is encouraging more businesses across the UK to join the Geared for Giving Campaign by writing to tell them about the success of his own scheme within the Bannatyne Group of businesses.

Duncan has written to Chief Executives of a host of leading businesses across the North East of England and Scotland. Duncan comments; “Charities have had a tough year and so it is imperative that any donations made to them are tax efficient to help stop the estimated £900 million they lose to the tax man every year.”

“When I was approached by the Campaign, I’d never heard of it, now I can’t imagine not doing it. Having now launched the scheme for my own team, I have received great feedback from my employees and I want to encourage more employers to follow my example.”

As the Campaign heads towards its objective of giving 1 million more employees access to a Workplace Giving scheme, there is no better time to join the many household names that have backed the Campaign since its launch.

Join the growing number of employers who are Geared for Giving today.
