THE CHELSEA PLAYERS' TRUST

To relieve in cases of need, hardship or distress persons who are or have been employed or engaged by Chelsea FC plc or its associated entities and the families and dependents of such persons including, but without limitation, any person who is or has been a player, manager or member of the medical, coaching or scouting staff whether at first team, reserve team or youth academy level.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently
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
The Board is completely male
The Board has little diversity in terms of age

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
