WARRINGTON CHARITIES TRUST 

The Charity gives small grants to local voluntary and community groups in Warrington. Applications for grant-aid are sought from small, often struggling Warrington based charitable activities throughout the year by formal and informal means, and grants distributed three times a year.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

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 has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
