All CCF grants seek to take the church out into the community, bring the community into the church and strengthen the relationship between the two.

About the Fund
The CCF was established in 1915. Formerly known as the Central Church Fund, it changed its name to 'The Church and Community Fund' in June 2006 and is now under the trusteeship of the Archbishops' Council (registered charity number 1074857).
Grants for Church-based community projects
The CCF gives grants to community projects run by parish churches, deaneries, dioceses and other bodies connected to or working in partnership with the Church of England.
Typical projects supported by the CCF might include employing a youth worker, renovating an old church hall for use as a community centre or providing hot meals for the homeless in a church room. We welcome applications which show imagination in responding to needs.
The CCF awards over £500,000 in grants every year.
