THE DUNKIRK WAR MEMORIAL TRUST LTD 

To provide premises and facilities for the benefit of seafarers in the port of Dunkirk.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
