Like all parishes, St Andrew’s is largely responsible for its own financial viability, in addition to meeting its obligations to support the Archdiocese and their approved causes.
There are a number of ways in which you can support the Parish in these endeavours and they can be varied to suit individuals’ circumstances and preferences. They include:
The Parish also has a Development Fund, which helps provide funding for major developments or renovations in the Parish. One recent example of this fund in action has been through the construction of the Parish Centre. You can appreciate the value of this investment by clicking here. For the future, the Parish has plans to enhance the Church through repairs to damp walls, improvements to the Sanctuary and lighting for which we may be seeking financial support. To do this you need to complete a Gift Aid Declaration (see below).
Gift Aid
If you are a UK taxpayer, for any of these options, you can take part in the Diocesan Gift Aid scheme. This allows the Parish, at no cost to you, to make recoveries from HMRC (currently 25% for basic taxpayers) of any donations you make.
