The parish is entirely dependent on parishioners to pay its bills and fund the work of the parish - and to make our parish's contribution to the costs of the Archdiocese.

Details of the parish's income and expenditure will be published here each year once the Annual Finance Report has been submitted to the Archdiocese. The Financial report for 2023 is available here. 

The Parish Finance Committee has oversight of the parish finances, and offers advice to the parish priest. They work with him as priorities are established for parish projects and the upkeep of parish premises.

  • Many people find it convenient to make their weekly contribution by standing order (either weekly or monthly). The form is available here, and should be filled in and returned by you to Brian Devlin (either passed to Brian directly; put in sealed envelope marked for Brian's attention and put in collection basket; or sent to parish house in sealed envelope, marked for Brian's attention.) (NB If you are not gift aiding your donation, you only complete the Bankers Standing Order Mandate)
  • It is a great advantage to the parish if those who pay tax are also able to Gift Aid their contributions - either weekly offerings or one-off donations, as this means that the Government will transfer to the parish the tax already paid on their donation. You can join the gift Aid scheme using the form available above, but please complete all the sections. 
    Should your circumstances change at any time such that you wish to increase your donation, or cancel your standing order, or leave the Gift Aid scheme it would be very helpful if you can confirm your intention in writing to Brian Devlin (c/o the Parish Hourse), in any of the  ways detailed above, so our records can be adjusted accordingly.
  • ​The Parish 50/50 Club​ is a fun way of helping raise funds for the parish. And sometimes you may win a prize! Details are available here.
  • If you are considering leaving a legacy  to the parish or to support the work of the Church elsewhere you are advised to speak with Fr Allen or email the relevant diocesan office or ring them at 0121 230 6216
