The Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) is an established service for managing Direct Debit giving, designed to support churches to fund their mission and ministry. It reduces the burden of work on church volunteers and provides a simple and secure service to givers. The service is freely available to all parishes, their churches and donors, within dioceses that have chosen to participate. Uptake is growing every year, with the majority of dioceses in the Church of England - and many of their parishes - now members of PGS and experiencing the benefits. You can use the search button on this page to discover whether your church is already in the scheme. The PGS makes it possible for givers to: Give monthly, quarterly or annually by Direct Debit Sign up to inflation-linked giving annually Enhance your gift to your church by having Gift Aid at 25% added to your giving Give securely and donate anonymously, if you prefer In addition to this website you can set up a Direct Debit to give regularly to your church, via gift form – available from your PGS parish representative or via telephone on 0333 002 1271, Monday to Friday, 9 - 5 Find out more PGS Case Studies Discover how PGS is serving givers and churches in a shared ministry of giving The Priory Church of St Mary and St Cuthbert, Bolton Abbey St Bede with St Clement Liverpool St James the Less Church, Bethnal Green Testimonials Read more about what parish clergy and representatives think about using the Parish Giving Scheme. If you would like to tell us about your experiences of the Scheme, we'd love to hear your feedback. View all Submit your feedback St Wilfrid’s Church, Burnsall We had planned to launch PGS to the congregation at our APCM in April. When this was postponed, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we instead approached key donors directly (we are a small parish, so this is not difficult!) We also persuaded 7 of our 15 regular Gift Aid donors to switch to PGS and attracted one new donor. This has had two positive effects: a) 5 of the 7 increased their committed giving by a total of 24% and b) with the addition of the new donor, our total regular monthly income has increased by 28%. Robert Fort, Hon. Treasurer St Cuthbert’s Church, Croxteth Park From a donor point of view, I feel that the scheme is very user friendly, as you don’t have to carry cash with you to the service and then you won’t forget to donate. You can also budget for the payments. All in all, so much more hassle free! I would highly recommend to any other parish.
