Financial Update

Income for January included December's Tax refund of £1,808.94 which comes from Gift Aided donations. January's standing orders totalled £1,591 and Green envelope donations totalled £822.35. Donations given via Pink envelopes totalled £429 where we see regular donations. If you kindly donate regularly in this way, I wonder if you would consider donating by standing order. If you would like a form to set this up, please see me.

For January our Planned Income amounted to £2413 which, added to the tax refund, brought in £4,221.94 and out of that we have paid our Parish Share of £3,811, Church Insurance of £1,271.21 and various other outgoings.

Retiring Collections:

January "! St. Luke's Hospital £122.69.

I have also received further letters of thanks from those Charities supported by the Church's Retiring Collections during the past year.

I am due to start working on the end of year accounts and have already received information from the various Groups. I would appreciate the remaining information as soon as possible, please.

If any more information is required, please feel free to ask and I will endeavour to help. Alternatively, a Finance Report is posted on the Notice Board prior to PCC Meetings, where more information can be found.
