Key takeaways

St Andrew's Histon directs unrestricted income to charities whose work coincides with its aims, which combine explicitly Christian mission with wider community wellbeing, so a request should show a clear link to one of these.
Neither the annual report nor its website publishes an application process, and no grant size is stated, so use the contact shown to ask about the process and a realistic amount before you write.
The PCC says it concentrates support on a small number of causes rather than spreading it thinly, and it will commit for several years when needed, so explain how your work could fit a longer-term relationship.
Its stated priority is national and international work, although it also says it balances local causes, so a local group should explain its link to the mission rather than assume it is out of scope.
It seeks accountability through prayer, updates on how money is spent and hosting speakers, so be ready to offer these, and no exclusions are stated.
