Havant and Emsworth United Reformed Church

Key takeaways

The charity's stated object is centred on the Christian faith, so a request that connects with its public worship, pastoral work, children and young people's activities, or the premises it makes available to community groups will read most naturally.
Its annual report gives no grants figure and no grant range, so there is no basis for saying what size of request is typical, and a modest, clearly costed request is the safest starting point.
No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to contact the church directly and ask whether it considers requests and how it would like them made.
The register gives its registered area of operation as Hampshire, but no geographic focus is stated, so do not assume a locality rule either way.
Its donations are for charitable purposes that need not be directly connected with the church, provided they are consistent with its ethos, so a community organisation outside church activity may still be worth raising with it.
