Deeping St James United Charities exists to help the people of Deeping St James, using the proceeds from the investment of gifts made long ago by a number of local landowners. Traditionally the income has come from agricultural land rents, and this is still a significant part of the Charities' portfolio, but recent development opportunities have allowed the trustees to raise significantly more income from other investments to help local people. How we might be able to help you:The United Charities can make cash grants to people in need through sickness or other personal or family problems and by partnership with the Deeping Men's Group provides mobility and other aids for the disabled. Support is also available for appropriate public purposes for the benefit of all or part of the parish community, and through the Tyghe Educational Charity for students and schoolchildren with particular needs. Annual book grants are available for undergraduate students resident in Deeping St James. Each winter the trustees make a benefit available to the older widows in the parish from the St Thomas's Day Charity, just in time to help with the Christmas expenses or heating cost. Help for the whole community:The Trustees are also able to make grants to local clubs and organizations which have members or beneficiaries living in Deeping St James, and also are able to make Public Purposes grants for projects which benefit all or part of the local community. Getting in touch:Contact with the United Charities can be made through the office at The Institute, 38 Church Street, Deeping St James, Lincs PE6 8HD or by telephone or email, and individual trustees are always happy to be approached directly to discuss parishioners' needs in confidence. Application forms for grants can be downloaded from the relevant sections of this website, or can be obtained from the Clerk on Tuesday mornings at the Institute or by arrangement. |
