Planned and Gift Aid Giving

One of the most valuable ways to support the Church in doing God's work is to make regular financial donations, weekly, monthly or annually.  This can be by cash or cheque in an envelope, or by Standing Order to the bank.

If you are a tax payer, we can reclaim the tax without any extra cost or any interference in your private affairs.  This increases the value of your donation significantly.
