HOME ACCESS TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH

The charity's objects are the relief of poverty in particular but not exclusively amongst the homeless by providing a refundable deposit to landlords to secure accommodation or to or for such other charitable purpose, institution, society or object as the trustees shall from time to time direct.
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
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Income has been volatile recently
