RIVER CHRISTIAN CENTRE LIMITED

THE PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY DURING THE YEAR CONTINUED TO BE THE PROMOTION OF CHRISTIAN SERVICE IN THE COMMUNITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 3 trustees
The Board composition appears to be very static and 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 and returns have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
