CONSETT COMMUNITY TRUST

this charity helps all people especially the less fortunate/vulnerable with foodbankwe also run a toybank and distrubte food hampers over the Christmas periodand we have a clothes bank
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why is the Board completely female?
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
