to serving the needs of Churches and Charities.
We are stewards of our investors’ money and carefully select investments using Christian ethical criteria. Epworth manages assets of around £1 billion and is wholly owned by the Central Finance Board of the Methodist Church – a statutory body established by the Methodist Church Funds Act 1960.
We have the privilege of managing funds for a diverse array of charities and churches, ranging from smaller organizations to widely recognized household names and major Christian denominations.
Our commitment to meeting the unique needs of all charities is reflected in our approach, providing accessibility to our funds starting from as little as £1,000. As a Group, we also extend a competitive interest rate across more than 6,000 cash deposit accounts tailored for charities.
Our mission is clear: to assist charities in achieving their objectives by offering tailored financial solutions that empower their mission.
Dedicated to fulfilling the needs of charities, our team is driven by a passion for our mission. This commitment enables us to attract individuals who not only excel in their respective fields but are also deeply devoted to the meaningful work they carry out on behalf of our clients.
