NEW LIFE CHURCH COALVILLE

We are a church affiliated to Assemblies of God. We hold regular Sunday services, prayer meetings and small group studies. Various courses and events are run to attract people from outside the church. We run a foodbank 2 days a week and host Hope67 Community Money Advice. We are involved in joint prayer and outreach events working with local churches.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • 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:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

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