Key takeaways

  • Outward giving at St Margaret's Church runs through its Mission Fund, which supports up to eight charities a year in home and overseas mission and relief, so work in those two areas is the clear fit.
  • The annual report shows total giving of £5,371, and the grant range is not stated, so a modest request is more realistic than a large one.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so use the contact shown for getting in touch, and time it around the Outward Giving Group, which meets twice a year and makes recommendations to the PCC.
  • How selection is weighed is not published, so do not assume a quick decision or a fixed timetable.
