The Redcliffe Parish Charity Trustees intend that, after making appropriate provision for The Redcliffe Parish Charity's ecclesiastical objects, the remainder of its property on closure should be transferred to the Bristol Municipal Charities Relief in Need Charity (Bristol Charities). Like The Redcliffe Parish Charity, Bristol Charities is a longstanding Grant making Charity in the City whose purpose also is to relieve people resident in the City of Bristol who are in need, hardship or distress.

The Trustees of The Redcliffe Parish Charity would like to receive your comments on the above merger proposal. They would also welcome feedback, if you have any, on the similarity of the two Charities` purposes, the preference that Bristol Charities proposes to adopt in respect for the funds for residents of St Mary Redcliffe with Temple and St John the Baptist, Bedminster, and finally if you have any comments on the Bristol Charities Application process.

Please address any comments you may wish The Redcliffe Parish Charity Trustees to consider to the Charity Chair - Mr G Briscoe, c/o the Parish Office, 12 Colston Parade, Bristol, BS1 6RA. (14th August 2020)
