St Peter's
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The charity's mission giving is meant to bless Brighton, its churches and charities, the nation and the world, and Brighton is given priority, so work based in or serving Brighton is the clearest fit.
- Its giving runs through strategic partnerships with churches and charities it works with, support for work it does not run itself, and projects started by congregation members, so a proposal that shows a link to one of these will suit it better than a general request.
- Most of its named grants to organisations fall between £500 and £17,500, and the median is £2,000, so a modest request in the low thousands is a realistic size; the largest named grant was £20,000, so the typical band is not a ceiling.
- The annual report and its website publish no application process, so start by using the contact it shows to ask how it takes requests before you write a full application.

Priority Areas
Mission giving is intended to ensure the church's work is not confined to St Peter's, but blesses Brighton, its churches and charities, the nation and the world. The Mission Giving Committee distributes funds through strategic partnerships with churches and charities it works with in Brighton and beyond, support for work that St Peter's does not itself undertake but would like to see carried out, and projects initiated by members of the congregation. These projects are intended to empower people with a vision for activity not centrally run by St Peter's. Its approach combines partnership giving, support for complementary work and congregation-led initiatives; the level of mission giving is set by PCC members based on projected income and asset levels.
