RAVENGLASS AND ESKDALE RAILWAY PRESERVATION SOCIETY TRUST

Support operation of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
