Buyer testimonial
“people4charity found us a highly effective and skilled senior developer who completed our project earlier than we had anticipated, which exceeded our expectations and saved us money …
It was also a real plus point that the freelancer we used shared our values and gave us preferential rates as a result. And the fact that people4charity will be returning a portion of their profit to Breast Cancer Care at the end of the year is a welcome bonus!”
Bertie Bosredon, Head of New Media, «Breast Cancer Care» – the UK’s leading provider of breast cancer information and support.

When you get a contract
Don’t forget that when you get a contract, you will need to be paid either through an umbrella company or a limited company.
It is quick and easy to register with an umbrella company.
We’ve entered into an arrangement with «CXC» to offer low-cost umbrella services to Sellers, via people4payments.
It costs £20 to set up your account and to process the first payment. Subsequent payments are £10. people4payments also deducts PAYE and NI, so you need to take this into account when setting your hourly rate. Other umbrella companies offer similar services.
