THE POVERTY AND ENVIRONMENT TRUST

We focused on the Sustainable Communities Act. This involves policies to combat the joint problems of poverty and environmental decline; and sets up a mechanism whereby those policies will be driven by local communities. We also made grants for the promotion of the Act.We funded an investigation into the social and environmental effects of energy policy.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 4 trustees

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
