Whatever your project, however big or small, we would be delighted to hear from you. If you would like to discuss the suitability of your project, or have any queries about your application, please contact the Grants Administrator, Helen Sammon. We can then arrange a mutually suitable time for a phone call.

We welcome applications for grants towards any church, and Christian based projects, particularly where the church is working in conjunction with the local community and addressing local needs. Grants vary from a few hundred pounds, to (around a maximum) of £10,000. Grants may be one off or for a period of 2-3 years. Please note that the Charity does not support building and building maintenance projects.
