1. Parish Giving Scheme
At St Michael & All Angels we encourage all parishioners to commit to regular giving to ensure we can cover all the regular costs of our clergy and church. Regular giving also helps our PCC to budget effectively and keep track of our money.
Our preferred way of giving is now the Parish Giving Scheme, a service established by the Church of England.
It is a direct debit scheme which also claims and credits gift aid for us. As such it greatly reduces our administrative burden.
It also offers the option – without any obligation – of an inflation-related annual increase.
Regular Giving: You can set up a Direct Debit through PGS that collects your gift, Monthly, Quarterly or Annually. There are no processing fees, and you remain in control of your gift.
One-Off Gift: You can use a Debit, Credit card or your Google or Apple Pay wallet to make a single one-off gift to your chosen parish. The Parish pays a small transaction fee to cover the costs of processing.
If you are already paying by standing order, we hope you will switch to the Parish Giving Scheme. Simply scan the QR code or click the button.
And if you are not giving regularly, we hope you will join the scheme.
Forms and guidance are available at the back of the Church and in the Parish Office. And if you have any queries, do please ask the Treasurer, Amanda Bradley.

2. Heritage Conservation Fund
St Michael & All Angels has launched a Heritage Conservation Fund to maintain and improve this historic Church, which has been at the heart of the community in Bedford Park since the church was consecrated in 1880. Please help us to preserve it for future generations. If you would like to contribute to the Fund, and help pay for the next phase of our building repairs, please donate here or contact the Parish Office.
