PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ALVECHURCH 

The charity is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of the parish community of St Laurence. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 17 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

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 and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
miles
