Giving to church
Most of us give to church through the weekly collection at Mass, but owing to the current situation a collection basket is not being passed around during Mass.
Nonetheless, the work and expenses of the church continue. To help the parish can keep within its budget, can we kindly ask those who have given weekly cash donations to set up a Direct Debit online? This would be of enormous help.
Above all thank you for your generosity!

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.
Simply complete a Gift Aid Declaration form and return it to the Parish Office.
