MINEHEAD BAPTIST CHURCH

As well as Sunday services, midweek activities include daily prayers, life groups, Girls' Brigade, youth group, a drop-in cafe, monthly communion and lunch, a monthly men's breakfast and dance in worship. The Minehead Hope Centre and AA use our premises. We have a community ministry at the Hub in Alcombe with Soft Play and a weekly toddler group. Please see our website for further details.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received Government grants
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity

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
