THE DOROTHY KERIN TRUST BURRSWOOD 

The charity will seek to transform lives through whole person care through health and Christian wellbeing activities continuing the work and vision of Dorothy Kerin and Burrswood Health and Wellbeing.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • 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
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
