GATESHEAD ACADEMY FOR TORAH STUDIES LIMITED 

The Charity's object and principal activity continues to be that of the advancement of Orthodox Jewish Religious Education amongst members of the Jewish faith throughout the world and such other charitable purposes as the Association may from time to time determine.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
