THE BEXHILL CARING COMMUNITY

To promote within the former borough of Bexhill, East Sussex, the welfare of the disabled, aged and lonely in any manner which is now or hereafter may be deemed by law to be charitable.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received Government grants
This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
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
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
