THE FRIENDS OF THE CATHEDRAL OF THE FOREST

We raise funds for the upkeep and preservation of Newland "AllSaints" Church in Gloucestershire. We hold concerts, let out the Church for concert and community activity, and we also fundraise through various grant applications, and we assist and liaise with the local Parochial Church Council on maintenance of the building(s).
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
