PARISH GIVING SCHEME

PGS's principal activity is to provide the most efficient & effective way for people to financially support the activity of the Church of England locally. This is done through a regular giving scheme which collects donations through direct debit & makes the donation (including gift aid) available to be spent in a specified church/parish within 10 days.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
