There are several different ways of giving to Emmanuel Church. Most regular givers give via monthly standing order. From the church’s point of view this gives stability and security to our monthly income. Click here for a pdf document that you can use to send to your bank to set up a standing order.

We recognise that not everyone is in a position to commit to give regularly. One-off donations can be made in cash or by cheque in the Gift Box at the back of church. We have made a decision not to have a collection during the church service.

Gift Aid

Whether you give regularly or are giving a one-off gift, if you are a UK taxpayer and sign a Gift Aid Declaration, the value of your gift can be increased by Emmanuel Church claiming back tax that you have paid on that gift. For every 78p you donate, Emmanuel can claim the 22p tax you have paid. This means if you donate £100 we can reclaim an additional £28.20.

If you are a higher rate taxpayer, you too can benefit from tax relief by claiming back the difference between the basic rate of tax and the higher rate of tax (40 – 22 = 18%). You need to do this through your annual self-assessment – speak to your local tax office on the procedures.

If you would like to Gift Aid your donation, please complete the Gift Aid declaration and return it to Brian Disney or post in the Gift Box at the back of church. Please contact Brian Disney with any questions. All information about giving is treated in the strictest confidence.
