Management as a registered social landlord of 51 Almshouses in Shrewsbury and Newport (Shrops) owned by the linked/subsidiary charity Shrewsbury Drapers Company Charity (1132671-1).

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
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:

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
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
