THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ST MARY, TOTNES WITH ST JOHN THE EVANGELIST, BRIDGETOWN

Furtherance of religion in Totnes.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
Why are there 14 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
