MITCHELL CITY OF LONDON CHARITY 

To offer pensions to those of state pension age, there may be exceptions slightly below that age, who have lived or worked within the City of London for a minimum of 5 years. To offer grants to charities in the City of London, or with a connection to the City of London. The 'City' is the 'square mile', almost all EC3, EC4, small area of EC1, EC2 - not Greater London.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 17 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

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