ST JOHN'S GUILD 

The aims of the Guild are to meet the spiritual, physical and sensory needs of people who are blind, deaf/blind or visually impaired and physically disabled people by focussing on the following areas: supporting the Guild Branches, promoting retreats, pilgrimages and holidays of varied interests and developing services where appropriate.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
