Inn Churches
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Inn Churches' work on homelessness, hunger and cold in the Bradford District fits groups working on poverty relief, and its stated geographic priority is West Yorkshire.
- Its annual giving is small, at £3,300 on the Charity Commission register, and the one programme with a stated figure, Acts 435 support, goes up to £200, so a modest request is the realistic size.
- No application process is published, so it may help to ask the charity how to approach it first.
- If a referral is planned under Acts 435, a first-time referrer must register with Inn Churches beforehand and request the registration form.
- No exclusions or eligibility conditions are given, so no group is ruled out on those grounds.
