St Mark's Church, Harrogate
At a glance
Key takeaways
- St Mark's Church, Harrogate is a church charity whose giving is framed around Christian mission, so the strongest fit is a mission, ministry or partner project connected to the parish, the diocese or overseas.
- Its annual report gives total giving of £32,136, and no grant range or typical grant size is stated, so a request should be sized to what a church of that scale might reasonably consider.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown for getting in touch to ask whether it is open to approaches before writing a full request.
- Its Mission Support Group looks for prayerful, intentional support that strengthens partner relationships, which suggests relationships matter here, and a project outside Christian mission is unlikely to fit.
