Trinity United Reformed Church Wimbledon
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Trinity's For Others Fund makes grants to charities and Christian organisations the Church wishes to support, and it also contributes to global emergency relief appeals, so the fit is clearest for a Christian organisation or a charity working in emergency relief.
- Most of its named grants are small: about 8 in 10 of its 15 grants fall between £500 and £1,650, with a median of £500, although its largest named grant was £2,750, so a modest request within the typical band is the realistic size.
- No application process is published, so the only route given is the contact shown for getting in touch, and a short enquiry is a sensible first step.
- Its Gift Day allocations are voted on by members and friends from a list of charities, which suggests that connections with the congregation may matter, so a cold approach is unlikely to be the strongest option.
- Organisations outside the church's stated scope should weigh their fit carefully before applying.
