P27 Trust
About This Funder
The P27 Trust, established in 2019 as a grant-making charitable company limited by guarantee based in York, UK, advances the Christian gospel while providing compassionate relief to people and communities in physical, mental, and spiritual need, both domestically and internationally. Rooted in Christian stewardship and values, it exercises broad trustee discretion to support faith-aligned initiatives that integrate gospel outreach with practical humanitarian aid, funding exclusively charitable purposes under English and Welsh law through responsive, values-led grant-making.
It prioritises projects in evangelism, Christian witness, poverty relief, community development, social care, and support for vulnerable or marginalised groups, often via faith-based charities. Grants cover practical relief, core funding, capital, and revenue needs, including unrestricted support for organisations strengthening Christian mission alongside tangible help for distress and suffering.
Eligible applicants are primarily UK-registered charities (England and Wales focus, but overseas welcome) of small to medium size, with preference for those under £10 million annual income and reserves below one year's expenditure; Christian ethos and alignment with trustees' priorities are key. Unsolicited written applications are accepted via email on a rolling basis, screened for eligibility, and reviewed at multiple annual trustee meetings, with decisions notified post-meeting (response may take months). Typical grants range from £10,000 to £100,000, with over £1 million distributed yearly.
Distinctive for its dual spiritual-practical focus, the Trust avoids well-funded issues, high-reserve organisations, or non-charitable activities, differentiating it through targeted support for gospel-centred work with humanitarian impact, without formal forms, deadlines, or thematic restrictions beyond faith-driven charitable need.
