We have changed the way we make grants from 1 July 2019 to make the process easier and our work more responsive to the needs of today's clergy.
As we seek to support Anglican clergy and their families, our goals include at least doubling the number of beneficiaries we help and also more strategic partnerships.
We are actively seeking new trustees who share our deep commitment to the wellbeing of Anglican clergy families today.
