CORNERSTONE TRUST 

Cornerstone Trust provides residential and domiciliary care for adults with learing disabilities in Bolton. We also provide a voluntary weekly day time activity group called CAT at the premises of Radcliffe Road Baptist Church in Bury.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
