WILLIAM CHOWN CHARITABLE TRUST 

Annual meetings to allocate donations
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board is completely 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 18 years
