ST MARY'S CONTACT CENTRE

The facilitation of contact between minor children and non-resident parents and other relatives as sessions held by the charity on alternate Saturdays at Norwich Central Baptist Church, Duke Street, Norwich.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly female
and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 4 years

Financial issues to consider:

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