BUSINESS ENTERPRISE HERITAGE TRUST

The charity maintains a library of approximately 40,000 volumes to support research into the history of business enterprise. It has purchased a leasehold business unit at the Grove Technology Park, Wantage, and this is being fitted out as a research library and study centre. Once the books have all been moved into the library the facility will be opened to the public.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly male
The Board composition appears to be very 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
Latest accounts are overdue for filing
