Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the Parish experienced a financial deficit of £3,971 for the year, with the Church Life fund facing significant pressure due to an inability to pay the full Parish Share. While St Christopher’s and St Michael’s maintain healthy balances, St Mary’s is described as being at a critical level and difficult to keep solvent without support from the other churches.
