To support the strong community spirit within St George’s we have introduced a volunteering scheme in the hope that both new and existing parishioners will become involved with the jobs and activities that go on behind the scenes throughout the year. We’ve already had a positive response, but we are always looking to increase our bank of volunteers.
You don’t need to commit to a weekly activity, we would be grateful for your help at any time of the year. Of course, those of you who are willing to contribute more time will be welcomed with open arms!
There are lots of benefits to taking part in the scheme, not only for our church, but for you as an individual. It's a great place to meet new people and it can be very rewarding to give something back to the St George's community.
Our Church is a family of many talents and there are lots of opportunities for everyone to contribute.

How can I give money to St George’s?
St George’s relies on your donations to provide care and support to everyone in this community. Please consider giving generously to support our mission and ministry.
Regular Giving - Stewardship
We encourage our church members to commit themselves to giving regularly on a weekly basis through the Stewardship Envelope Scheme or monthly through the bank standing order Stewardship Programme. In either case we ask you to review your commitment every year in line with your circumstances and to keep up with inflation.
If you choose to use the bank standing order Stewardship Programme then you simply set up a monthly standing order payment at your own bank (suitable forms are available from the Treasurer if you do not bank online). Your payment will be made every month and you have nothing more to do. Just pass the collection plate by if it comes to you during any church service and focus on your prayer and worship! (see bank details below)
Occasional Gifts
You can make one-off or occasional donations by bank transfer (see bank details below)
You can make a gift on this website through “Give a Little” – just click the “Donate” button
