THE LEADERS OF WORSHIP AND PREACHERS TRUST 

Providing resources, support and grants for those that preach.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

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 recently but spending has been maintained
