‘Helping Horsforth Flourish’

The aim of Horsforth Chaplaincy Project (HCP) is to support the church as a whole in ‘helping Horsforth flourish’ in all aspects of the community.

We are an independent charitable organisation, part of parent charity Leeds Christian Community Trust charity number 1096860, registered limited company no. 4632481.

OUR SUPPORT

We rely heavily on donations from individuals who very kindly provide roughly 80 % of our core income, but also on contributions from churches and sometimes small grants (Laura holds a time-limited role mostly funded by a Government grant). We do have a shortfall, so if you would like to support the work Duncan, Rhoda and Laura are doing in Horsforth by giving financially you can set up a one-off payment or a standing order using online banking, or by sending a cheque or by using the manual standing order form.

You can find the bank details for online banking and all other details you need for other types of payment and gift aid on the form – just click on the image or download button, thank you.

Any queries, please do email Duncan on duncan@horsforthchaplaincy.org

Thank you for supporting us!
