Planned Giving supplements the collection taken up at Sunday Mass and provides each parish with a regular income to provide against the running costs of the Parish, the living expense stipend for the Priests and for the maintenance and growth of the mission of our parishes. Please contact your local parish to set up a Planned Giving facility.

The Bishop’s Care Appeal was started by Archbishop Paul Martin SM to raise money during advent so that charitable work can be carried out in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Since its launch in 2018, the Care Appeal has supported numerous charitable initiatives, and made a difference to the lives of many individuals and families.

Although annually centred on Lent and Advent, the Bishop’s Care Appeal accepts donations throughout the year.

Some areas of support include, providing food, housing, counselling, and other resources to those in need. Financial assistance is also given to continue the good work of volunteers, community service staff, chaplains and social workers who serve members of our community.

Additionally, the Bishop’s Care Appeal supports many local causes across the community including St Vincent de Paul, Catholic Social Services, victims of natural disasters, local schools, rehabilitation programmes for prisoners and victim support for those suffering from terrible tragedies

Bishop Michael says he is incredibly grateful to our Catholic community – ‘it is through your generous gifts and prayers that we continue to provide support for individuals and families in need throughout the Diocese’.

We look forward to sharing stories over the year of the impact you have helped to create. [insert link to donate]
