OVING ALMSHOUSE TRUST 

The charity holds, maintains and administers the four almshouses which it owns in the parish of Oving, West Sussex, for the benefit of present and future occupants, who are aged or infirm persons of good character and (except in special cases approved by the charity commission) are resident in the parish at the time immediately prior to their occupancy.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
