CHICHESTER BAPTIST CHURCH 

We aim to worship God and we seek to communicate the truths of the Christian faith in an understandable and relevant way to help people to commit to and become more like Jesus. We aim to help people in need locally and beyond and so we are actively involved in serving our community. Our premises are used by a variety of organisations for the benefit of our local community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
