THE RICHARD ATTENBOROUGH CHARITABLE TRUST 

The trust funds are for the benefit of such charitable objects as the trustees may nominate, subject to the prior consent of the settlor during his lifetime. Applications for funding from charities and institutions are considered and awards are made on merit.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 2 trustees

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
Established: 54 years
