REGINALD BAKER CHARITABLE TRUST 

The trustees support the maintenance, in the London Borough of Sutton and the Episcopal area of Croydon, of the worship of God through music including the maintenance of bells and pipe organs ( as opposed to electronic organs or harmonium) but not other musical instruments and items of musical provision and assistance and the provision or purchase of hymn books.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
