Parish Governance

Parish Finance Committee

The only committee that we are obliged to have in a parish, according to Canon Law, is a Finance Committee. Ged Hull leads the Parish Finance Committee with people involved in finance matters such as counters, Gift Aid organisers, who can help prepare the annual accounts, and manage the financial affairs of the Parish.

As the cost of running parishes becomes more challenging and those who contribute are financially squeezed, along with the lessening of Mass attendance, so it becomes more important to manage parish finances with care.
