If you would like to give regularly to St Mary’s there are 2 main ways: Weekly Envelope Scheme or Standing Order: Please speak to Treasurer Catherine McArdle or Stewardship Recorder Elsie Points.

GIFT AID

Tax-Efficient Giving to the Church

Gift Aid is the process which allows a charity (in our case St Mary’s Church) to reclaim the tax you have already paid on any donations you make now or at any time in the future. If you want to give any money to the Church (in the collection or as a single donation) and you pay tax (on income or savings) you can give an extra 28p for every £1 at no extra cost to you!

If you are willing to do this, please fill in a Gift Aid form. You only need to give the details once; after that your name is enough.

Catherine or Elsie will be able to give you the form, or you can download it by clicking on the link below.

the Gift Aid Flow Chart here explains the process.
