COPYHOLD ALLOTMENTS 

The small income generated from the charity's ownership of a parcel of land "Smaller Poors Piece" in Little Baddow by leasing is now held in its own fully separated accounts including with CCLA , published in an Annual Report shared with Charity 239382, and is currently used in small grants to initiatives assisting needy villagers in Little Baddow, Essex, in particular with emotional support.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
