BIBURY UNITED CHARITIES 

This is a small registered charity that serves the Cotswold village of Bibury. The charity was formally constituted in 1898 when several separate local charities (some dating back a century or more) were combined. Our main responsibility nowadays is to maintain and run Bibury Village Hall, and keep it at the heart of village life. There is also a small welfare trust within the charity.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
