THE ST CLEARS TOWN TRUST 

The charity owns the town hall, the boating compound and community hall and several small parcels of land passed down from the original Town Corporation. Income is generated from lease of the land and the hire of the boating compound and community hall
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
