    My employer gives all staff a £125 tax-free cash bonus at Xmas as part of their staff reward scheme.  I received £125 in 2022 and a further £125 in 2023 - both of which are unspent and sitting in my rewards account so I am rolling this (£250) over into my Xmas Fund for 2024.  I have made a January deposit of £50 to the fund, so my total so far is £300.

  • I haven't managed to add anything yet. 

    I've got my car booked for an MOT so waiting to see what damage that does then I can maybe top up the £31 for January.
