Thames Valley Church
Key takeaways
- Thames Valley Church's stated objects are the advancement of the Christian religion and the relief of poverty in the United Kingdom and worldwide, so a request fits best where it serves church ministry, help for needy and sick people, or overseas mission work.
- Its annual report gives no grants figure that can be read and no grant range, so there is no published basis for a realistic request size, and any amount should be agreed with the charity.
- No application process is published, so the way in is to contact the charity using the contact it shows and ask whether and how to apply.
- Donations to it are restricted to uses such as HOPE WW Nepal and HOPE WW India projects and benevolence work within the church and local communities, so a request should name one of these purposes.
- Nothing is said about timing or how competitive its giving is, so ask about both in that first conversation.
