THE MERSEY MISSION TO SEAFARERS 

PROVIDE RELIGIOUS, MORAL AND TEMPORAL WELFARE FOR SEAFARERS VISITING MERSEYSIDE AND ALSO TO RETIRED SEAFARERS AND THEIR FAMILIES
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

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
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
