Giving
Your giving enables everything that needs money at Bognor & Slindon parish, including our eight Sunday Masses, work with children and youth, Adult Faith Formation, Connect Groups, Alpha, Sacramental Preparation, outreach like the Sunday breakfasts, as well as supporting our Priests who day in day out accompany those in need and provide the Sacraments.
All that happens within our parish is made possible by those who pray, serve and give to the work of the church.
This could not happen without you.

Churches are registered charities, and Gift Aid allows charities to claim the basic rate of tax on donations received from UK taxpayers. The basic rate of income tax is currently set at 20%.
This is how it works:
- Suppose you give the parish £5 per week (£260 each year)
- The parish is able to reclaim from HMRC (Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs) the tax you will have paid on the income you have donated to church.
- This is calculated as 20% of £6 (the gross amount of your gift), i.e. £5
- The total that church receives is therefore your £5 plus £1 Gift Aid, it might not sound like much but over a year that's an extra £52, and over several years it all tots up.
