THE WORLD ZOROASTRIAN ORGANISATION LTD

We aim to communicate the message of Zarathushtra and Zoroastrianism, and improve the circumstances of needy Zoroastrians around the world through charitable and social activities.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are 23 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
