Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that 2025 was a challenging financial year for both parishes, with Holy Trinity relying on fundraising and a bequest to cover running costs after a significant reduction in its Parish Share. All Saints achieved its voluntary giving target and paid its reduced Parish Share in full, while Holy Trinity received a £5,000 bequest and raised over £7,000 through events. The trustees note that despite high electricity costs, the diocese provided relief by reducing the Parish Share obligation.
What the accounts disclose
“God continues to provide. Given our high electricity costs this year, the diocese reduced our Parish Share to £30,000 from over £38,000, a great help. Even so, to cover the costs of running the church, we have had to rely on other sources of funding.”
