ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH

Activities include the provision of regular services for worship and fellowship, on Sundays and during the week. Children and Young People are catered for with specially designed teaching and activity periods on a weekly basis. The charity also runs a pre-school day care nursery. The charity also maintains a local community foodbank.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there only 2 trustees?

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
