St Paul’s Kingston
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its giving is framed around Christian mission in line with Church of England doctrine, so a request should show a clear connection to that purpose.
- About 8 in 10 of its 16 grants to organisations fall between £275 and £5,850, with a median of £3,500, so a modest request in that range is realistic; the largest was about £6,100, so that band is typical rather than a ceiling.
- Payments are decided annually, and no way to apply was found in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so an enquiry to the church is the only route the sources show.
- Its stated priorities are the UK, South London and East Surrey, and its giving rests on ongoing relationships with mission partners that the church describes but does not explain how to start.
