Key takeaways

The PCC makes grants to other organisations from income across the year, but the annual report gives no usable grants figure, no grant range and no published application process, so the first step is to get in touch through the contact shown and ask how to apply.
Its grants are expected to align with the PCC's objectives, and the recipient should normally work in a different or wider geographical area, so a group whose work is confined to the parish may not match that expectation.
The charity names extreme poverty relief and disaster relief as its grant themes and says its grants often go to organisations in those areas, so a request should show clearly how the work relates to them.
The PCC aims to make grants totalling at least £1,000 each year, but the sources do not say how many grants that covers or how large any one grant is.
Organisations whose work does not align with the PCC's objectives should not apply.
