The United Reformed Church (Northern Province) Trust LTD supports the mission, discipleship, and practical needs of URC congregations and related ministries across the Northern Synod in the UK. Its funding combines small, accessible mission grants with more traditional church-building support, including repairs, energy-efficiency upgrades, and manse improvements. It also backs youth placements, learning and development, and community-facing initiatives that express Christian mission, discipleship, justice, and creation care.
Offers a mix of small grants, loans, and program-specific support through application forms and guidelines; some opportunities are simple and low-barrier (notably Tiny Grants, up to £1,000), while others are more structured for property, manse, and training-related needs. Funding is geographically limited to the Northern Synod and is generally church- or ministry-specific rather than open to unrelated nonprofits.

Check the specific grant stream and use the corresponding form and guidance notes, since eligibility and purpose are tightly defined. Tiny Grants are the easiest entry point for small mission activities, but repeated requests for the same activity are discouraged; property, environmental, and manse support require clearer documentation of building-related need.
