THE FOUNDATION OF ST. BENEDICT OF NURSIA 

Advancing the Roman Catholic Faith throughout the world
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
