THE ROSS WARBURTON CHARITABLE TRUST 

General charitable purposes. The charity's main objective is to make grants to various charitable bodies which mainly benefit children, young people and voluntary bodies
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
