Key takeaways

Its outside giving goes to organisations beyond the church that support Christian mission, so an application should show a clear mission purpose, and its stated priority is the UK, with giving around the world too.
The annual report gives annual giving of £72,650, but the register does not confirm that scale and no grant range is published, so frame any request around what a specific sum would pay for rather than assuming a size.
No application process was found in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so ask the charity how to proceed before preparing a full proposal.
It describes its support as regular giving to mission partners, so a case for an ongoing partnership suits it better than a one-off appeal.
