Clergy Support Trust today is the largest charity helping clergy of the Anglican Communion in times of personal hardship, as well as their widows and other dependants. In 1998 Ross Clark wrote in The Independent that in the previous year 3,500 clergy had resorted to one of the two charities (still independent of each other at that date). This number has since fallen as the combined charity now focuses its work on those in greatest need. The charity is based in a Grade 2 listed building at 1 Dean Trench Street, Westminster, which address was for a while after WW1 the home of Winston Churchill. In 2019 the charity's income, mostly from investments, was £4.3 million, while the long-term investments as at 31 December 2019 totalled £117.3 million with another £2.4 million in net assets. The charity had seen a rise of £16.5 million in the value of its investments during the year.
