CHICHESTER BAPTIST CHURCH 

A key part of our mission is to serve our local community and demonstrate the love of Jesus. As well as services on Sundays, we hold a parent/carer toddler group, children's and youth groups, Alpha Courses and a lunch club for older people. We have a Christians Against Poverty office to help any facing debt issues. Our buildings are used by many groups providing services for our local community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • 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
  • One or more trustees receive benefits from 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
