Finance

The Diocesan Board of Finance (DBF) is an incorporated, charitable body which is the diocese’s financial executive and the employer of its staff. Its directors are simultaneously Directors and Trustees responsible for employing staff at Church House; for managing the assets of the Diocese; and for providing administration and holding property on behalf of Diocesan Synod (as the Diocesan Synod is legally unable to do so). It acts in accordance with the policy and directives of the Diocesan Synod.

The Board of Finance provides information and advice on financial matters to clergy, PCCs and Parish Treasurers; and is responsible for keeping the accounts of various diocesan bodies.
