St Mary's Barnes
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Check first that your work fits one of the themes its grants fall under: UK and overseas mission, relief of poverty, or education, including ministry training.
- Most of its grants fall between £1,250 and £2,700, so a modest request in that range suits its typical giving, though the largest reported grant was about £2,950.
- The annual report shows grants mainly in Richmond upon Thames, Richmond, South Sudan, Hammersmith and Fulham and London, but no geographic focus is stated, so an organisation elsewhere should not assume it is ruled out.
- No application process is published, so get in touch through the contact the charity shows for that purpose, and ask about timing, as no timing is given.
