THE TRINITY PARISH

Our aim is to promote the Christian faith. This is done by being witnesses in the community with community events, reaching out to the vulnerable, providing teaching for those who come to worship and training for those who wish to go further. There is a focus on children and young people as part of this through the local schools and parish based groups.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

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