Regular public worship open to allPastoral work, including visiting the sick and the bereavedTeaching of Christianity through sermons, courses and small groupsTaking of religious assemblies in schoolsPromotion of Christianity through the staging of events and meetings, and the distribution of literatureSupporting other charities in the UK and overseas

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there 23 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

Income has been volatile recently
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
