THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF BISHOPSTON AND ST ANDREW, BRISTOL

At B&A we are all about what we call Little Church. Little Churches are communities of friends growing as followers of Jesus and making a difference in the lives of others in lots of different ways. As Little Churches we gather together to celebrate who God is and all he is doing through us and among us. We call these times Gatherings. We are a church of all ages.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • 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
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £1,630,853 available, equivalent to 25 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
