The Many Ways of Giving
St Mark’s Church costs some £2,700 per week to stay open and increasingly we need additional donations to supplement the hard work undertaken by parishioners and clergy. Thus we welcome Donations to help us maintain the mission and ministry of our church.
ONLINE
The easiest way to donate is online. You can pay using your credit or debit card.

To donate via PayPal please click the donate button above.
To claim Gift Aid we will need your name and address to be advised to us by PayPal as part of the payment advice. To confirm that we may do so please type ‘Gift Aid’ in the message box – ‘Add special instructions to the seller’ - when confirming the payment and also tick the "Share my postal address with St. Mark’s" box.
Gift Aid is really very important to us as it enables the Church to claim an extra 25% from The Inland Revenue. Thus for every £10 received as Gift Aid St. Mark’s Church receives £12.50. All these extra amounts can add up to make a real difference.
Alternatively, if you prefer to send a cheque, a Gift Aid form can be downloaded here.
Please send your donation to The Parish Office, St Mark’s Church, Hinton Wood Avenue, Highcliffe, BH23 5AA which is staffed by a part-time administrator who can be contacted via email at Parishoffice@stmarkshighcliffe.org.uk or by phone message on 01425 277614
Many thanks.

PARISH GIVING SCHEME (PGS)
For regular donations St Marks operates the efficient Parish Giving Scheme (PGS). This uses direct debiting to send donations to St Marks bank account without any fees being incurred and so we encourage as many people as possible to use this.
