St Philips Church, W8
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Its giving is small: the annual report gives one total of £1,432, so a modest request is the realistic size, and the report does not show what any single grant has been.
- Its giving normally comes from fundraising events, special collections or gifts made for that purpose, so an unsolicited request falls outside its usual donation policy and will be considered by the PCC or Standing Committee on its merits.
- Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline to work to, but a request should show clearly how it connects with the purposes set out in the PCC's objects.
- Past giving has included Christian and international-aid organisations, a hospice and a church-run night shelter, so a request in a similar field may be the easiest to justify.
- No exclusions or eligibility limits are stated, so nothing here rules any organisation out.
