To maintain and run the Parish costs a considerable amount

Every Parish is expected to contribute a calculated proportion of its income, known as the 'Parish Share', to the Diocese each year and this, together with the responsibility of maintaining three church buildings puts a heavy burden on the Parish. In addition to meeting our Diocesan obligation, there is always a need for maintenance and repair work, which means we need to raise funds for particular restoration projects from time to time.
Some of our income comes from investments fees and lettings of the church hall, but a large proportion of it has to come from the people of the parish, by way of planned giving and donations. We can (and do) claim back the Income Tax on planned giving donations which are Gift Aided,  but making the money stretch to cover the Parish Share and ongoing maintenance expenses each year is always something of a struggle.
A small committee of volunteers meet regularly to plan and monitor our finances.

.If you would like to know more about the Planned Giving scheme or about how Gift Aid works, you can talk to any of the following:

TREASURER - Mrs Jeannette Waters - (office.morpethparish@gmail.com)
PLANNED GIVING CO-ORDINATOR - Mr David Pope (01670 519520)
GIFT AID CO-ORDINATOR - Mr Martin Booth (01670 503584)


Gift Aid and Parish Giving Scheme forms may be found in each of the church buildings, or on application to the Parish Office (01670 503326), or to Dave Pope (01670 519520) dpope@morpethnet.co.uk

If we are to continue God's will in Morpeth , then we cannot afford to do nothing or leave it to someone else.
Individually & jointly we can make a difference.
