ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF FORDINGBRIDGE AND HYDE AND BREAMORE AND HALE WITH WOODGREEN

Church of England Ecclesiastical Parish known as Avon Valley Churches

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there 17 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
