PCC of Long Melford
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its recorded grants go to parish church bodies, scouting organisations and other charitable organisations, and its annual report shows one grant for a Lent Appeal, so a group with similar work has the clearest case.
- Total annual giving was £2,626, according to the annual report, and the grant range is not stated, so a modest request is more likely to fit than a large one.
- No geographic focus is stated, though the annual report shows grants mainly in Barnardiston and Sudbury; a group there may find the record closer to its own work, but that is not a rule about who may apply.
- No way to apply was found in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so a group would need to make a first approach without a published process.
- Neither the annual report nor the register entry sets out exclusions or eligibility rules, so no group should be ruled out on that basis.
