Parish Of Wisley With Pyrford
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Your work fits best if it is Christian mission, community engagement or pastoral care and makes a difference in the Parish or close neighbours, since those are the criteria the Local Community Fund applies.
- The fund held £6,323 at 31 December, so a modest request is more realistic than a large one, and the annual report gives no grant range to suggest otherwise.
- Applications to the Local Community Fund are considered quarterly, with closing dates of 31 March, 30 June, 30 September and 31 December, and are reviewed at the next committee meeting.
- Your summary should state the amount you need, how the contribution will make a significant difference, how the Parish could engage with your cause, and whether the cause has a Christian ethos or foundation.
- Causes can reapply in the following year for a further level of support.
Overview
Parish Of Wisley With Pyrford is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number 1128605).
Parish Of Wisley With Pyrford is a registered charity whose PCC exists to promote the whole mission of the Church in the ecclesiastical parish. Each year it gives an amount equal to a proportion (currently 10%) of its voluntary income from regular giving, including Gift Aid, to Christian mission both abroad and in the UK. Of the £22,793 allocated to meet that 10% requirement, £4,032 went to Pyrford CofE Primary School. The balance is split equally between three chosen charities, Amaha We Uganda, Woking BESOM and St Michael's Sheerwater, and the Local Community Fund, which was launched to support the Parish Vision of Engaging Community and Pastoral Care.
