Guidance last checked 22 July 2026· from the funder’s own website
Overview
Kingdom Network is unusual among grant-makers: you are not required to be a formal group or a registered charity to apply. It makes grants to people, groups or projects involved in advancing the Christian religion, and to work that prevents or relieves poverty in the British Isles. Poverty is treated broadly here — financial, emotional, spiritual, relational or mental. Its guidance says applicants must be based and work within the British Isles and be over 16 years of age at the time of application. The Charity Commission records a narrower area of operation, throughout England and Wales, so check with the funder if you are outside those two countries. Applications go in as a scanned PDF by email and are considered at the next trustees meeting, in order of receipt.

Common questions
What does Kingdom Network fund?
Its objects are to advance the Christian faith by making grants to people, groups or projects involved in advancing the Christian religion, and to prevent or relieve poverty in the British Isles. Its own guidance describes relieving or preventing any form of poverty, whether financial, emotional, spiritual, relational or mental. Its Charity Commission entry records its purposes as religious activities and the prevention or relief of poverty.
Who can apply?
Its guidance says applicants must be based and work within the British Isles and be over 16 years of age at the time of application, and that you are not required to be a formal group or registered charity. Its Charity Commission entry records a narrower area of operation, throughout England and Wales, so check with the funder if you are outside England and Wales.
What will it not fund?
It cannot support a group that owns assets or buildings requiring maintenance or subject to legal requirements, because it cannot maintain property or take on liabilities outside its control. Applicants who have been barred from grants because of misuse of previous funds are barred from re-applying.
How much does it give?
It does not publish a grant range in the material recorded here, and the Charity Commission register does not record a figure for its grants to organisations. There is no typical or median award figure available for this funder.
How do I apply?
Its guidance asks you to submit the application form by sending a scanned PDF by email. Trustees consider applications at the next trustees meeting, on an order of receipt basis. Check the funder's own website (www.kingdomnetwork.org.uk) and its Charity Commission entry (charity number 1181690) for current guidance, as processes can change.
