Online business resource The UK Domain will donate £1 for every new .UK domain registered before 17 January 2020.
Each donation will support leading suicide support charity Samaritans in developing its vital online chat service from its pilot stage to launch.
Nominet, the parent company of The UK Domain, will donate £1 for each new domain registration ending in .co.uk, .uk, .org.uk, .me.uk, .ltd.uk, .plc.uk and .net.uk, between now and 17 January.

However, although most companies realise the importance of employee engagement, the majority find it very challenging to find something to actually engage employees with.
Payroll giving is something to consider – through our Give As You Earn (GAYE) scheme over 2,500 companies and their staff to give over £74m to charity each year. Since 1987, over £1.3bn has been given.

What is payroll giving?
Payroll giving is a scheme that enables your employees to give to any UK charity straight from their gross salary (before tax is deducted), and to receive immediate tax relief.

Entrepreneurs have until this Friday, June 28 to sign-up for the £50 Challenge, a new charity drive to raise money for children’s hospice Noah’s Ark.
Start-ups, sole traders and SMEs will then have 12 weeks to show off their innovation and money-making acumen to raise as much money as possible for Noah’s Ark.
The business or team that raises the most will be awarded the Noah’s Ark £50 trophy, with other awards for the most creative and most sustainable ideas.
Each business that donates an initial £50 sign-up fee will qualify for discounted ad rates in North London newspaper Ham & High, the charity’s media partner.
Life-threatening conditions
Noah’s Ark provides support for babies, children and young people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions and their families in North and Central London and Hertsmere. The charity works with over 500 parents and carers, offering help to children, their siblings and parents — as well as supporting families after bereavement.
After years of providing community-based services, this year Noah’s Ark will open The Ark, its custom-built hospice in Barnet, North London. The facility has been developed on a 7.5 acre nature reserve. The Ark will enable the charity to offer more
