Key takeaways

  • St Andrews, Sonning gives modest grants: the typical grant in the annual report is £750 to £1,500, with a median of £1,000 and a largest of £2,000, so a request in that range fits its usual pattern.
  • Its stated themes are Christian outreach, children and families, homelessness and the worldwide church, and its reported recipients include local food provision, education, family support and charitable work overseas, so a grant writer should show how their work matches one of these.
  • No way to apply is published in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so a short written enquiry is the sensible first step, and the PCC has described keeping a small reserve from which specific requests might be met.
  • Its stated geographic priority is worldwide, and no exclusions are stated, so check fit against the themes rather than assuming a limit on where work may be.
