THE DEEPINGS COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED

TO PROVIDE HEALTH, EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES FOR RESIDENTS IN THE AREA OF BENEFIT AND BEYOND.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
