ABRIDGE EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH

We hold a weekly Sunday Morning Service. We provide Bible teaching, pastoral support and prayer ministry. In cooperation with the local school, we host and lead their Assemblies. Little Bees, our toddler group, is a meeting place for young mothers and their children. Much of our land is given over to allotments as a service to those who live in the village. We hold some social events.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
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
