TOGETHER IN SUSSEX 

The Charity?s objects are for the benefit of the public to promote the efficiency of Christian based charities in the furtherance of their objects, or any one of them, mainly but not exclusively by the provision of information, advice, support and infrastructure provision; and the relief of financial hardship, either generally or individually, through the provision of grants, goods or services.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • 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
