Whirlow Grange Ltd - Grants

Whirlow Grange Ltd has a grant-making function.

Each year, the directors, taking account of the objects of the charity and the financial resources available to them, set aside a part of the charity’s income to make grants to individuals and corporate bodies for religious and educational purposes that are aligned to our purpose and values.

Grants to individuals are primarily given for training and ongoing development in spiritual accompaniment, personal spiritual development, support for attending retreats and other aspects of personal Christian education and development. Grants may be made to organisations to support or provide such activities. We do not usually fund other training, events, studies and development in ministry and mission, especially where it is to be undertaken in a professional capacity. A grant for one year of a programme should not be taken as a precedent for funding for subsequent years. Repeat awards are only likely to be made in exceptional circumstances and should not be expected.

If you are interested in applying for a grant, please read the details here. You can then download and complete the application form, if you so wish.

We do not normally make grants for events that have already happened or courses that have started when the Board meets. We advise you to apply as soon as possible. The deadlines for prospective grant applications are by midnight (Sunday night) on the following date:

10th November 2025

Deadline dates for 2026 will be confirmed soon. Grant decisions will normally be communicated within three weeks of the above deadlines.
