The Parish of Sutton with Seaford
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The parish's stated themes are Christian mission, people in need and emergency needs, so a request should clearly connect to one of these.
- No application process is published, so the practical first step is to get in touch through the contact on its website and ask how it considers requests.
- Its annual report gives only a total giving figure of £12,750, which may include grants to individuals, and no typical or largest grant is stated, so keep any request modest and do not assume a particular size.
- Planned support goes to several charities across the year, and emergency appeals are raised as needs arise, so timing is uncertain and an enquiry before the planning round is likely to be the most useful.
- No exclusions or eligibility limits are stated, so no type of group is ruled out.
