TOGETHER LIVERPOOL

Together Liverpool's aim is to support churches working with community groups wanting to tackle poverty, deprivation and disadvantage in their boroughs.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Financial issues to consider:

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