Hertford Baptist Church
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Your work fits if it advances Christian mission, Christian relief, or training for Christian service, especially work carried out mostly overseas or through commissioning organisations.
- Most of its named grants to organisations fall between £1,350 and £7,700, with a median of £2,500, so a modest request sits well within that typical range.
- No application process is published, so the annual report, the register entry and its website give only a contact to get in touch with; start there and make clear which of the three themes your work serves.
- Grants are approved once a year by the Church Members' Meeting and carry no commitment to future funding, so one approach may not lead to repeat support, and you should not plan a budget around it.
- The funder states no geographic focus, though the annual report shows grants mainly in Hertford, so ask about reach before applying.
