Headington Baptist Church
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Headington Baptist Church is most likely to fit work that advances the Christian faith, education or charitable social action, and that complements the church's own work.
- Its stated priority is the United Kingdom and abroad.
- Typical grants fall between £1,000 and £9,350, with a median of about £3,550, so a request near the middle of that range matches what it has given.
- The annual report publishes no application process, but its contact is shown for getting in touch, so a short enquiry first is the sensible route, and grants are considered in the annual budget-setting process before being approved by the Members' Meeting.
- Organisations whose objects do not complement the church's work should not apply.
