St Oswald's Church, Croxley Green
At a glance
Key takeaways
- St Oswald's Church paid out £8,805 across 14 grants to organisations, so its budget for any one applicant is limited.
- About 8 in 10 of its grants fall between £115 and £750, so a request in that typical band fits, though its largest grant was about £1,500, so the band is not a ceiling.
- The church selects charities to balance local, national and overseas beneficiaries and evangelistic, social and environmental causes, so show how your work fits one of those purposes.
- No application process is published, so use the contact shown to get in touch before sending a formal request.
- The annual report names no geographic focus; grants have mainly gone to Newham and Watford, but that does not decide who may apply.
