BRISTOL NOISE 

Bristol Noise inspires and equips churches and Christians to show God's love in practical ways to their communities. We mobilise volunteers, host events and provide resourcing to facilitate practical social action, motivated by the Christian faith. We work with churches and other local agencies to bring lasting positive impact to individuals and communities across Bristol.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received Government grants
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely male

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 and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
