ST PETER'S UFTON CHARITABLE TRUST 

The Freehold to the redundant church of St Peter at Ufton Nervet was obtained in November 2012 and the property transferred to the Charity Commission Official Custodian. Since November 2012 work has been carried out on the building to create a Cultural Community Centre..
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male
  • 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
