Key takeaways

Emmanuel Croydon funds work in evangelism, social action, justice and discipleship, with Croydon as its priority and Britain and abroad also in its focus, so projects in those themes and places are a reasonable fit.
Most of its named grants fall between £1,000 and £5,250, with a median of about £2,700, so a request in that range is realistic; the largest grant in the annual report was about £11,000, so that band is typical rather than a ceiling.
No application process is published in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so start by getting in touch through the contact shown.
The charity says it aims to keep personal links with the projects it supports that were begun by, or involve, its members, so expect a relationship-led approach and consider whether your work already connects with the church.
