Grant Making Bodies

Below is a list of grant making bodies that your Church or Circuit could apply to for projects - both building and ministry.

We'd advise you to firstly check the eligibility criteria for each of the funds before you spend time working on an application.

Also remember that some grant making bodies will grant towards part of a project even if the whole project doesn't meet their criteria (for example a secular grant making body may not grant towards your youthworker in general because there is a faith based element to their work but it may offer an allocation towards their work in a school running a cookery club or the like).
