Childcare vouchers
Childcare voucher schemes are being phased out by the HMRC and are now closed to new applicants.
However, anyone on the Church of England’s payroll who joined a scheme on or before 4th October 2018 can continue.
See more about these schemes on the national Church of England website and the Government website.
Tax-Free Childcare, an alternative
The Government has introduced an alternative to Vouchers, called tax-free childcare which is independent from payroll.
You set up an account and every time you pay money in, the Government will top it up by 20%. The money can then be used to pay for approved childcare.
For all the information, see the national Church of England website.
