Key takeaways

  • Little St Mary's Church describes its giving as supporting church mission and local charities, so a small local charity or a project tied to the church's mission is the kind of applicant it names.
  • The annual report gives annual giving of £16,040, but it gives no grant range or typical grant size, so a modest, clearly costed request is a sensible starting point.
  • Its register entry lists Cambridgeshire as its area of operation, though no geographic focus is stated, and no exclusions or eligibility rules are given.
  • The annual report, register entry and website show no way to apply, so a short enquiry to the church before any full proposal would be the sensible first step.
  • The published information does not say whether its giving is competitive or relationship-led.
