HOLSWORTHY COMMUNITY PROPERTY TRUST LIMITED

The charity's objects are to provide affordable property to people who are in necessitous circumstances within the Holsworthy Market and Market and Coastal Town Inititative and surrounding areas.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • Returns have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
