Key takeaways

Its stated purpose is the advancement of the Christian faith, and its giving goes to mission causes and mission partners, so a project should fit that mission focus to be worth approaching.
Its annual giving was £21,762 in total, which may include grants to individuals, and the register does not confirm that scale, so a modest request is the safer starting point.
No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown and ask how it considers requests.
Its language describes mission partnership, so a conversation before any written request may suit it better than a cold application.
Nothing in the annual report, its register entry or its website sets out who must not apply, and its geographic focus names Tunbridge Wells as a priority alongside national and international work.
