Practical Information and Advice

Every day people ring the FIEC office with all kinds of queries. Where we can, we are happy to help FIEC churches and pastors with specific questions. Advice to non-FIEC churches is on a discretionary basis.

In most cases it is the FIEC Administrator, Rod Badams, who will be able to offer assistance. He can be contacted at the FIEC Office

Churches' Handbook

Many of the practical issues faced by church officers are dealt with in the Churches' Handbook, published by FIEC. A revised edition of this handbook was published in April 2006. Details can be found in the resources section of the website.

Charity Registration

The details of the timetable and process of registration of churches as charities with the Charity Commision are given in the following special issue of Blue Pages, issued in September 2008

CRB Disclosures

The FIEC is registered with the Criminal Records Bureau as an 'Umbrella body' and is therefore able to submit CRB Disclosure applications on behalf of affiliated churches. This service is also extended to other like-minded churches. Please contact the FIEC Office for more details.

Blue Pages

Much relevant information for churches and leaders is published in the FIEC Advice Sheets (popularly known as "Blue Pages"). This is issued by the FIEC office, normally three times per year. Recent editions are available below in PDF format.
