THE CORPORATION OF THE CHURCH HOUSE 

To own and maintain Church House for the use of the National Institutions of the Church of England.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • More than half of total income was derived from trading and fees in the latest year
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £24,698,793 available, equivalent to 48 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
