To offer any help that a church may provide in the furtherance of the Christian faith (including, but not limited to, the provision of buildings and services) to the Holy Trinity Church, Portland Street, Cheltenham and to any other person or organisation that the directors of the Charity may see fit from time to time
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly 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
