FRIENDS OF ST PETER & ST PAUL EWHURST 

We raise funds to support repair and restoration projects at the historic, at risk, Grade 1 listed Church of St Peter & St Paul, Ewhurst in Surrey. We do this by building a donor/supporter database, organising events for our supporters and the wider community and also by raising awareness of the building's heritage through our website, educational church tours, and speaking to community groups.

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management 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
