THE FRIENDS OF WORTHAM CHURCH 

The charity holds several events in Wortham each year to raise funds for the maintenance of Wortham church. Events are usually concerts in the church and social evenings in Wortham village hall. Funds are also raised through membership subscriptions and appeals.
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 gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

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