Partnership working

Creating a Payroll giving scheme for your employees is quick and easy. All your employees’ donations are sent directly to a Payroll Giving Agency (PGA) who will handle the transfer of funds directly to Eden Valley Hospice/Jigsaw, or any other charity they may choose to support.

Payroll giving is a great way to make a regular tax free gift to the hospice. It’s the only way of giving to charity that allows full tax relief on donations, and there are virtually no set-up costs.

If you would like someone from Eden Valley Hospice / Jigsaw to come and speak to your staff about the scheme please contact Martha Pardoe, our Relationship Fundraiser, at martha.pardoe@edenvalleyhospice.org or call her on 01228 810801.

Normally you will be met by a nurse or healthcare assistant upon your arrival. They will take you through to the In-Patient Unit and get you situated in your bedroom and have a cup of tea if you wish one. They will give you all the information you need for your stay and explain what happens next. They will then let you know when one of our doctors will come and see you for a chat.

At Jigsaw we try to promote a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere for everyone. All the staff aim to be friendly and helpful and will be happy to answer any queries. Please don’t feel you’re being a nuisance for asking – we prefer you let us know your concerns. Anything we can do to improve our service and environment we are happy to hear about.

A partnership with Jigsaw can be mutually beneficial. Whatever the motivation may be, we work closely alongside our corporate supporters to explore and develop opportunities to meet the objectives of both organisations.

A partnership with Jigsaw can also have some fantastic commercial advantages, such as:

• Raising your company image whilst interacting with the local community
• Being able to develop and enhance relationships with customers and networks
• Giving your business ‘the edge’ against your competitors, making it easier to recruit employers
• Being included in our press releases/ social media updates, generating more positive publicity and brand awareness for your business
• Fantastic team building opportunities, boosting morale within your workforce. Employees tend to be better motivated and more productive
