HOW YOU CAN HELP

DONATIONS ~ STANDING ORDERS AND DIRECT DEBITS ~ GIFT AID
WILLS ~ SPONSORSHIP ~ FUNDRAISING ACTIVITES

Whoever and wherever you are, it is possible for you to help the ancient and historic town of Hedon to restore and maintain its magnificent church. Whether you are an individual person, a small business or a big industrial company and whether you are able to offer money or simply your own time and effort, your contribution will be both welcome and worthwhile. Without the help of many thousands of people our target of £4 million will be quite unobtainable.

If we do not achieve our target of £4 million we will use whatever we do raise to restore the fabric of the church and provide much-needed internal facilities as far as we can. If we are fortunate enough to reach our target, any excess will be used for any further fabric repairs and to support the work of the church in Hedon.

DONATIONS :
Gifts of money, however small, may be given as one-off contributions to the members of the Restoration and Development Committee listed below, cheques being made payable to "St Augustine's Church Restoration Fund."

Revd. Ivan Howitt, 44 New Road, Hedon, East Yorkshire, UK HU12 8BA Telephone 01482 897693 (Vicar)
Mr Timothy Wigglesworth, 7 St Augustine's Mews, St Augustine's Gate, Hedon, East Yorkshire, UK, HU12 8QP Telephone 01482 893076

Donations to the Appeal Fund Direct.
Arrangements have been made with Lloyds TSB Bank, St Augustines Gate, Hedon, to accept any donations over the counter. These can be paid direct into the Appeal Fund. If you wish to use this facility, please enquire of the counter staff who have been briefed in the procedure and will give you every assistance. Please note that the Gift Aid Scheme, whereby 28% can be added to the value of your donation to the advantage of the Appeal Fund can apply if you are a taxpayer, in which case, make this known to the staff who will ask you to complete a simple declaration.

STANDING ORDERS AND DIRECT DEBITS :
If you would like to make regular donations without having to send cheques or cash, you can set up a Standing Order or Direct Debit with your bank. This will allow a regular donation, however small, to be sent directly to the Restoration and Development Fund with little effort. For bank account details, please use the "Donate Now" button above and check "Regular Donation" where indicated.

GIFT AID :
When making a donation you can sign up to the Gift Aid scheme which adds 28% to your giving. The tax you have paid on your gift is refunded to the church but costs you nothing. The only requirement is that you are a UK taxpayer and that you pay at least as much tax as you give to the appeal. If you can help in this way, please use the "Donate Now" button and check the "Gift Aid " box. You will be sent a Gift Aid Declaration to complete and sign and return with your gift. You only have to complete one form no matter how many times you make a donation. If you wish to give regularly by Standing Order or Direct Debit you can also complete a Gift Aid Declaration.

WILLS :
Please consider leaving a gift to the church in your will. Legacies from generous benefactors can provide much needed funds and help to ensure that "The King of Holderness" can continue to be at the heart of Christian mission in Hedon.

SPONSORSHIP:
An excellent form of help which individuals, or more especially companies, may wish to consider is the sponsorship of one or more of the organised efforts being undertaken during the period of the Restoration and Development Appeal.

ORGANISING OR HELPING WITH FUND-RAISING ACTIVITIES:
This is how it is hoped that the hard work of the local people can be harnessed over the next few years to raise money through a wide range of events and activities. If you are able to organise an event, no matter how small or large, please contact the Appeal Secretary, Mrs Dorothy Winter, at The Ridings, Clough Garth, Hedon, East Yorkshire, telephone 01482 899925, or email her at .

Mrs Katherine Danby has arrived at an imaginative idea for fund raising. If you have a special anniversary that you wish to celebrate, e.g. a marriage, baptism, birthday of you are a loved one, for a contribution of £10 per year you can nominate a date on which your gift will support the illumination of the church. A S/O mandate form will be provided if you contact Katherine at 896343.
