Key takeaways
- The Trust's stated purposes are to advance the Christian faith and relieve need and hardship, and its themes list poverty relief, so requests are most likely to fit if they connect to those aims.
- Its stated priority is Alton, and no exclusions are stated.
- Its annual giving is £26,919 and its grant range is not stated, so a modest request is the safest starting point.
- No application process is published, so contact the Trust through the contact it shows for getting in touch before writing a full application, and ask then about timing, since the annual report and register entry do not say when it decides grants or how competitive it is.
