CHICHESTER THEOLOGICAL TRUST 

CTT came into existence on the closure of the Chichester Theological College. It purchases books and periodicals for the theological library it owns now housed at the University of Chichester. It supports activities that can make a meaningful contribution to the life of the Church of England and which fall within its objects. It provides a small number of grants to individuals.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

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