Finance Department

Finance

The Diocese of Ely Finance Department offers help and support to PCC members about managing parish finances.

Every church in the Diocese of Ely needs money to stay open and serve its community. Every parish arrangement is also a registered charity in its own right.

So PCC members are charity trustees and stewards of the parish’s money and resources.

Browse this section for all kinds of information and guidance relating to money within your parish.

PCC Treasurers should also visit the pages in the "Your Church Role" section of this website which includes further details on matters such as "Return of Parish Finance" and "Annual Report and Accounts".
