WATCH (WOMEN AND THE CHURCH)

In furtherance of its objects the Charity organises events and meetings alongside the meetings of the General Synod of the Church of England and on other occasions, responds to issues raised by members and others, and publishes articles, reports and analysis with a particular focus on the role of women at all levels in the church. We also participate in consultations and working groups.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
There are 14 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
The Board is predominantly female
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
