THE MOTHERS' UNION (DIOCESE OF ST ALBANS)

A Church of England organisation supporting Christian family life throughout the world, with 3.4 million members worldwide, and approx 850 members in the St. Albans Diocese branch.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is completely female

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
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
