THE NIGHTINGALE CENTRE (UNITARIAN)

A Unitarian conference centre based in the village of Great Hucklow, Derbyshire to further the religious and other charitable work of the Unitarian and Free Christian Churches including: (a) the relief of those in need by reason of youth, age, ill-health, financial hardship or other disadvantage; and (b) the provision of facilities for the education of students of educational establishments.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
