Registered charity 1164688 · since 2015stjohnscoulsdon.com·Croydon·Updated 29 October 2026

Key takeaways

St John's Coulsdon's recorded giving is mission giving, mostly to Christian and church-linked causes such as a linked parish overseas, a food hub, a leprosy charity and a diocesan Lent fund, so a project with a clear faith or church connection is the closer fit on the evidence.
Neither its annual giving nor its grant range is stated, so a realistic request size cannot be worked out, and a modest, specific ask is the safest starting point.
No way to apply was found in its annual report, register entry or website, so any first approach would be made without a published route, and no timing or deadline is stated.
Its registered area of operation is Croydon, but no geographic focus is given, so that is not a rule about who may apply.
Organisations with no church or Christian link have less evidence that their work sits within what the charity has funded.
