BARTHOLOMEW THOMAS ALMSHOUSES

Provision and maintenance of four almshouses within the parish of Bicknoller for poor men and women over the age of 55 who have resided in or within 10 miles of the parish of Bicknoller for not less than five years.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
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
Spending is declining
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
