TRUE VINE APOSTOLIC MINISTRIES 

HOLDING REGULAR SERVICES SHARING THE GOSPEL OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. REACHING OUT IN THE COMMUNITY TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO PURSUE TRUE SPIRITUAL ENRICHMENT IN THEIR LIVES
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
