Giving Officer, Trusts & Legacies
Helen Liley is the diocesan Giving Officer. Unlike a traditional stewardship officer Helen's role is to support the local vision of stewardship with the tools and skills used in the wider charitable sector. Through this approach she will help all PCCs develop their giving levels.Helen is launching a diocesan wide regular giving scheme in December 2009 operated through a centralized direct debit and gift aid system to support parishes both reduce administration and increase giving. This will be a 'free' service with all such donations and gift aid remitted back to the parishes within 10 days of collection.
To find out more about GIVING FOR LIFE, select the Parish Giving Scheme menu, under 'more options'.
Helen is also looking at developing volunteers across the diocese who will assist in implementing this offering at parish level. If you or anyone you know would be interested in helping with this please contact her using the details below.
As well as Helen are various resources on the internet which are useful guides for parishes who want to find solutions to address funding issues, the best of these include:
