A holy place in Saltash, a holy place for Saltash, and a place
to encounter the holiness of God in Jesus Christ our Lord

Support Our Churches

The Church of England offers a Christian presence in every community. Together we seek to make this Christian presence the heart of all our cities, towns and villages: by our wonderful buildings; by worshipping together; by serving our communities and by sharing our faith and values. This valuable contribution to our community has a cost, of which 75% is met by personal donations. For our church to survive and grow, we rely on regular donations so that we can plan confidently for the future.

Our Churches have bills to pay - the insurances, repair work, salaries, and also heating. So to those who do give their offering either through a standing order, direct debit or the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) – thank you. See below for how to join the scheme.

Thank you for your continued support this these difficult times.

Regular Donations

Parish Giving Scheme

The scheme is a centrally run (non-profit), professional system that offers a simple way for people to make regular donations to their parishes. (www.parishgivingscheme.org.uk).

Donations can be made on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis via Direct Debit to the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS). Even though donations are made to the PGS, they are restricted to our parish and unlike a utility bill, you are always in charge of what you give. The parish is paid the donations and the Gift Aid monthly.

The advantages for the parish are no more local administration, timely Gift Aid payments and the ability to plan ahead knowing the amount of money coming in.

The advantages for the donor are no more scrabbling around for change on a Sunday morning and the ability to easily increase your donation in line with inflation (if you wish).

St Stephen's and St Nicholas and St Faith are members of this scheme - to donate to either church ring the dedicated PGS telephone number 0333 002 1271 (Monday to Friday, 9am – 5pm). One of the their administrators will take you through the sign-up process - usually takes about 15 minutes.

You will need the following information:

  • Personal bank account details
  • The name of the parish you wish to donate to (St Stephen's by Saltash or Saltash St Nicholas and St Faith)
  • You will need to confirm if you want to increase your gift in line with inflation each year
  • Confirm if you are eligible for Gift Aid
  • The PGS code for your parish (STST: 390639288; SSNF: 390639324)
