THE CHISLEHURST SOCIETY CIO

The Chislehurst Society is a voluntary organisation in the heart of the village, striving to bring people together to protect, preserve and enhance where we live.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
