Key takeaways

  • The annual report says the charity supports three independent local charities, and its wider work is delivered through its own services and partnerships, so an open grant request may not be the usual route.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, and the only contact shown is for getting in touch, so a short enquiry is the sensible first step.
  • The Charity Commission lists its registered area of operation as Wolverhampton, Walsall, Dudley, Sandwell, Birmingham City, Coventry City, Worcestershire, Oxfordshire, Staffordshire and Warwickshire, but no geographic focus is stated, so check fit directly rather than assuming.
  • The report describes the groups it supports as serving local communities, older people, adults with disabilities, and asylum seekers and refugees, so a group working with those people may be the closest match.
  • The grant range is not stated, so do not plan a request size from the figures: the annual report shows £76,083 paid, and the register does not confirm that scale.

Overview

Father Hudson’s Caritas is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number 512992).

The charity grew out of work at St Paul's Roman Catholic Pool Law School, which led to the setting up of the working boy's home later known as St Vincent's. Its stated mission is to respond to need and help all people lead fulfilled lives through its range of services and partnerships. It works across five themes: Older People, Children and Families, Homelessness, Refugees, Asylum Seekers and Migrants, and Disability. The annual report shows £76,083 paid, though the register does not confirm that scale.

Priority Areas

Father Hudson’s Caritas says grants payable to third parties further its charitable objects and reports support for three independent local charities. Its objects permit grants, goods, services or facilities to relieve financial hardship and suffering, and encompass relief of sickness, preservation of health, and care for children and young people, older people and their carers, people with disabilities, and individuals, families and communities in need. The report describes supported organisations as serving local communities, older people and adults with disabilities, and asylum seekers and refugees. This is support for independent charities alongside a wider organisation whose own work is delivered through services and partnerships; the material reviewed does not describe a public grant application route.
