ABOUT US
Our Finances
The Diocese of Manchester’s finances are mainly managed through the Manchester Diocesan Board of Finance (MDBF), a company limited by guarantee and a charity.
Most of the MDBF income is provided by Parish Share, contributions from Archbishops’ Council, diocesan fees and income from investments and property.
