LEEDS CHURCH INSTITUTE (INCORPORATED) 

The charity pursues its objectives by organising formal talks, seminars, training and other educational activities; resourcing the churches in their mission and ministry through consultancy, research, the development of specific projects and provision of a resource centre; and supporting the representation of churches and other faith communities in a number of public bodies.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • The Board appears to be well diversified 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
