Corsham Baptist Church
Key takeaways
- Corsham Baptist Church makes grants only to national and international Christian organisations and societies whose Christian aims and objectives are compatible with its own charitable purpose, so a group outside that description should not apply.
- The annual report gives no grant figure or grant range that can be read, so the size of a realistic request is not stated, and it would be sensible to ask the church about this before writing a request.
- No application process is published in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so the church's contact is the only route, and an approach should explain how the organisation's work fits its charitable purpose of advancing the Christian faith according to Baptist principles.
- Its published material names a set of existing mission partners, including refugee ministry, Bible translation and literacy, and Christian mission activity, which suggests that fit with those areas matters, though the sources do not say how decisions are made.
