St Peter's Barge
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its stated theme is Christian mission, so a project with a clear faith dimension is the most natural fit.
- Its typical grants fall between £100 and £5,500, with a median of £3,000, so a modest request sits well within what it has given.
- The annual report gives its annual giving as £25,165, and no application process is published in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so the sensible first step is to use the contact it shows for getting in touch.
- Its stated focus is London and the Canary Wharf estate, and nothing published says how competitive it is or whether a prior relationship is needed, so ask it directly about its process before writing a full application.
