The provision and maintenance of a Museum of Robert Owen artifacts and a reading room for the benefit and use of the inhabitants of the Town of Newtown & Llanllwchaiarn and the surrounding area.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition
  • This charity is based in an area of high deprivation

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
