GIFT AID

If you pay tax, the Inland Revenue will already have taxed you for the donations you make to the Church. If you would like this tax to benefit the Parish instead of the Government, all you need to do is complete a Gift Aid Declaration. It only takes a few seconds and costs you absolutely nothing. If you would like to know more, please see Fr Wilson.
