Saint John’s Egham

Saint John’s Egham is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number 1130185).

Saint John's Egham exists to promote the whole mission of the Church in its ecclesiastical parish. It gives 10% of its General Fund voluntary income to five mission partners it supports financially, and enhances this giving with appeals. It also runs a Hardship and Wellbeing Fund, which St John's first set up as a Hardship Fund during Covid to help those struggling during lockdown. The annual report shows £39,521 paid in its most recent reporting year.

Priority Areas

The church’s giving to organisations supports five mission partners financially. It sets aside a share of unrestricted gifts for those partners and supplements this through appeals. Its grants are described as supporting local and overseas ministries, and are based on knowledge of and connections with the partner ministries. The church also provides financial help through its Hardship and Wellbeing Fund to people in need who live in Egham or have a connection to St John’s. The fund responds to specific needs not met through existing provision, and its support has included essentials and housing-related requests. Church members maintain close relationships with the mission partners, visit them and pray for them.
