The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St James and St John with St Peter, Clerkenwell
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Your work fits best if your organisation is a church, church network or Christian mission organisation, since its grants support those kinds of groups, especially work on church mission, ministry to refugees, church planting, ministry training and Bible translation.
- Its typical grants run from £1,050 to £17,500, with a median of about £8,250, so a request near the middle of that range is a realistic starting point.
- No application process is published, so contact the address shown for getting in touch and ask how to apply before you write anything.
- No geographic focus is stated, and the annual report shows grants mainly in Nigeria, Malaysia and South Africa, so ask rather than assume your location rules you in or out.
- Its small relief grants go only to members of its own church family in financial need, so an organisation seeking help for people outside that community is unlikely to fit that strand.
