ROYAL ARMY CHAPLAINS' DEPARTMENT ASSOCIATION

To promote the efficiency of the RACHD, in particular, but not exclusively, by:* Maintaining contact between past & present members of the department* Fostering espirit-de-corps, comradeship & welfare of the department.Also to relieve, either generally or individually, Chaplains or formaer Chaplains or the dependants of such persons who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

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