WRAY CHAPEL 

Our aim is to introduce, make and grow disciples of Jesus Christ. This is done through services of Bible study, worship and prayer. We also provide various midweek groups, youth and children's activities, support, sports and social events for the church & the local community. We also seek to support individuals and organisations with similar aims in the UK & overseas.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

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