Newcastle Diocesan Education Board
Key takeaways
- The Board's work centres on religious education, school worship and Church of England schools in the Diocese, so a request fits best if it concerns those things.
- Its stated priority area is Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside and Northumberland, so a group working there is the closest match.
- The annual report gives no grant figure or grant range, so ask the contact shown before setting the size of a request.
- No application process is published, and nothing available says how competitive the Educational Grants Fund is or when decisions are made, so make the first approach by getting in touch.
