PARKSTONE CHRISTADELPHIAN CHURCH

We advance Bible based Christian teaching for members of the public and the Christadelphian Community centred around Poole and Bournemouth. We hold meetings which are open to the public usually at our Hall in Douglas Road Parkstone. We collect for many charities, both as part of the Christadelphian ecosystem and for local and national charities. We strive to serve our members and the public.
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 a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • Why is the Board completely male?

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
