The objects of the Church are for the benefit of the public: a - to advance the Christian faith, b - to relieve sickness and financial hardship through the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind including through the provision of counselling and support, c - to advance education in such ways and in such parts of the UK or the World as the Church Council may think fit.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
