Oxford Diocesan Board of Education
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its stated purpose centres on education in the Diocese of Oxford consistent with Church of England faith and practice, including religious education and worship in schools, so a project with that focus is the clearest fit.
- The latest annual report shows £6,000 awarded in total, and that figure may include grants to individuals, so a modest request is the realistic starting point, and no grant range is stated.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown to get in touch and ask how to proceed before sending anything.
- The Charity Commission lists several places as its registered area of operation, including Oxfordshire, Reading and Milton Keynes, but no geographic focus is stated, so ask the contact whether your area is covered.
- Nothing published about the charity shows how competitive funding is or when decisions are made, so ask about timing when you get in touch.
