Priests' Retirement Fund

Priests' Retirement Fund - On 1 & 2 June weekend we have a retiring collection for the Priests' Retirement Fund. This annual collection helps support our sick and retired priests. It allows the diocese to help retired priests living on their own with rental costs and utility bills; it goes towards care home fees where needed; and also enables help with medical costs. About £300,000 per year is paid out to support our sick and retired priests. Your generosity is much appreciated. To enhance the value of your gift, special gift aid envelopes will be available in all our churches - please use one if you are a taxpayer.
