AYLSHAM COMMUNITY CHURCH

Aylsham Community Church hosts and provides a variety of caring community based activities as well as Christian church services.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

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