Key takeaways

  • Oakhall Church's giving fits best where the work advances the Christian faith in line with its Statement of Faith, such as Christian missions, Bible-school support and humanitarian aid, and its largest grants go to outreach in Serbia.
  • Most of its typical grants fall between £2,000 and £7,400, with a median of about £3,000, so a modest request is the realistic size; the largest grant was about £69,500, so that band is not a ceiling.
  • The annual report publishes no application process, and the church says it makes grants to organisations and individuals it knows, so it seems relationship-led and you should get in touch through the contact it shows before sending a request.
  • Its focus is stated as the United Kingdom and the world, and work that does not further the Christian faith is unlikely to meet its purpose.
