THE TOM GRAHAME TRUST 

The Tom Grahame Trust was set up in memory of Tommy Grahame who died in December 2006 from a brain tumour, aged 6. Previously the Trust funded 'Tom's Gift' which was a present for every child in the UK with a malignant brain tumour and research into childhood brain tumours. Now the The Trust manages a playground at Clyro Church in Wales Primary School.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 13 years
