For UK Anglican churches
Church management software for Anglican churches
Church management built for parishes — Electoral Roll, PCC, and Gift Aid in one place
Anglican parishes have specific governance and administrative requirements that generic church software doesn't cover. The Electoral Roll has to be revised under the Church Representation Rules 2020. The PCC has to keep proper minutes, declarations of interest, and DBS records. Gift Aid claims need to land in HMRC's Charities Online schedule format. MosesTab is the UK church management platform that treats those workflows as first-class features rather than afterthoughts.
What Anglican churches actually need
- Electoral Roll with annual revisions and APCM 14-day display reminders, full revision every six years
- PCC governance with role terms, term-end alerts, declarations of interest, and DBS expiry tracking
- Annual diocesan return prefilled from your member and giving data
- Gift Aid claims that match HMRC Charities Online's exact CSV schedule format
- Parish Share tracking and recurring Bacs Direct Debit collection
- Safeguarding-aware child check-in and visitor follow-up

- Electoral Roll Officer runs annual + full revisions inside the app, no shared spreadsheet
- Treasurer collects Direct Debit at Bacs interchange instead of card processing fees
- Standard parish reports (members, giving, attendance) ready for archdeacon visitations
Frequently asked questions
Does MosesTab handle the Electoral Roll under the Church Representation Rules 2020?
Yes. MosesTab supports the application + approval workflow, annual revisions, full revisions every six years, the 14-day public-display reminder before APCM, and printable roll exports. Each entry is timestamped and linked to the application form so PCCs have a clear audit trail.
Can the PCC manage meetings and minutes inside MosesTab?
Yes. The PCC module covers role-holder terms, declarations of interest, DBS expiry, scheduled meetings (including APCM), attendance, lockable meeting minutes, and a prefilled diocesan annual return.
How does Gift Aid work for an Anglican parish?
Donors complete a Gift Aid declaration on your giving page (or through paper form added to the system). MosesTab generates a CSV in HMRC's Charities Online schedule format — title, first name, last name, house name/number, postcode, donation date, donation amount. You upload it via the Government Gateway and HMRC processes the 25% reclaim. Already-claimed donations are excluded automatically.
What about the Parish Share?
MosesTab tracks recurring giving via Stripe Bacs Direct Debit at Bacs rates and reports total weekly/monthly giving in a format that makes Parish Share calculations straightforward.
