Key takeaways

  • Christ Church Abingdon's giving is directed at Christian mission, through its Mission Support Group, so a request should be framed around mission work in the UK or overseas.
  • Neither the annual report nor the register gives a usable annual giving figure or grant range, so a realistic request size cannot be set from the available information.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, and its giving is coordinated through the PCC's budget and selected mission partnerships, so an unsolicited approach may have no open route; use the contact shown to ask about this before writing a full proposal.
  • Nothing published sets out who may or may not apply.

Overview

Christ Church Abingdon is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number 1153844).

Christ Church Abingdon exists to promote the whole mission of the Church in its ecclesiastical parish. It began when a small group of scientists and others new to the area wanted a Christian presence in the north of Abingdon. The church gives away 15% of the money it receives to support mission beyond the parish, in the UK and overseas. Its Mission Support Group sets a budget and distributes funds allocated by the PCC, and its Overseas Mission Donations support mission partners and other Christian mission organisations working overseas.
