The Giving Campaign is boosting its payroll giving team with the appointment of 
two new campaign managers. 
Guy Simpson and Penny Clover are joining the

 

Campaign aiming to increase the number of businesses and public sector organisations
that offer a scheme to staff and boosting employee participation in organisations
currently running schemes.

Guy Simpson will focus upon private sector companies, signing up new companies and
encouraging those that already have a scheme to strive for an employee participation
rate of at least 10%. Guy has spent over fifteen years working in commercial sales
and marketing in addition to time as a voluntary fundraiser for the Air Ambulance
Foundation.

 

 

Penny Clover’s remit is to promote payroll giving within the public and

 

voluntary sectors. Penny Clover joins the Campaign with twelve years experience 
as a fundraiser in the voluntary and statutory sectors. Penny’s experience spans
various trust and corporate fundraising roles for a wide range of charities, local
authorities and community groups, including Project Manager of the UNICEF/British
Airways Change for Good appeal and Payroll Giving consultant to the Marks & Spencer
Children’s Promise campaign.

 

 

Phillip Mind, Acting Director at The Giving Campaign, said: “Although Payroll Giving
is the fastest growing tax-effective giving method – raising £86 million for charities
over the last financial year alone – currently only around 1% of employers have 
a scheme. We’re delighted to

 

have two new members of staff on board to boost momentum in this area. We’d like
to see over £100 million per year raised through the scheme.”

 

 

Phillip Mind is Acting Director at The Giving Campaign while Amanda Delew is

 

absent on maternity leave. Amanda will return to work in February 2004.
