Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) is a simple and effective way to give regularly to this church. With PGS you can set up a monthly direct debit, apply Gift Aid (if eligible) and each year, have the option to increase your gift in line with inflation. You can set up your gift in one of three ways:


  • Online – set up your gift on the PGS website.
  • By Phone – Call 0333 002 1271 (9am – 5pm, Monday to Friday). You will need to have your bank details to hand and the PGS Parish Code for the church (below)
  • By Post – Register your details and select ‘request a PGS paper gift form’. A form will be sent to you to complete and return to PGS.
PGS Parish Code 010601504

You can make a BACS transfer and set up a standing order using your own internet banking account or app. It is always helpful to let the church treasurer know you have done this to help them account for the gifts they receive. If you are unsure how to contact the treasurer you can register your details by hitting the button below and we will forward these to the treasurer.
