Key takeaways

  • St Luke's Church Battersea says its external mission supports grassroots relief, rehabilitation and development work, so a small charity doing that kind of work in Wandsworth, the UK or overseas may fit its interests.
  • Its annual report shows £20,629 paid out across a network of over 30 small partners, so a modest request is more realistic than a large one, and no grant range is stated, so treat any size as something to check.
  • No application process is published, and the church builds its partnerships through personal connections within the congregation, so start by making contact through the contact given for getting in touch and explain clearly how your work matches its themes.
  • The approach seems relationship-led rather than open, and the register did not confirm the annual giving figure, so verify it before you plan around it.
