THE VILLAGE HALL (SHAPWICK) 

Provision and maintenance of Shapwick Village for the use of the inhabitants of the Parish of Shapwick and the neighbourhood with the object of improving the conditions of life for those within that community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
