THE POOR'S ESTATE

In line with Matthew Dodgsons original wishes circa 1731-41 to provide "to the poor of Thorner, Shadwell and Scarcroft"The Trustees determine the distribution in line with the original bequest, distributing usually to the elderly organisations in the three villages as the most needy, albeit the trust is always open to specific requests.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there only 2 trustees?
  • Why is the Board 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
  • This charity appears to be dormant
