The office in the shul is only very occasionally manned and we are therefore unable to collect post in a timely manner and, therefore, we cannot undertake to bank cheques, charity vouchers or cash without some inevitable delay.  This is particularly relevant if you wish to pay your shul bill other than by direct debit. We would ask you to please pay via BACS (see below) or ring Sheila Braude on 07871754602 and she can take your credit or debit card details.
