THE CHARLES GARDNER MEMORIAL FUND 

The Charles Gardner Memorial Fund manages a hall and recreation field providing facilities for young peoples' activities linked to the local parish church. The fund also owns two residential properties providing accommodation for the organisations' leaders or, if not so required, let on the open market thus providing an income for the fund.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years
  • Income has been volatile recently
