BENNINGTON HALL TRUST FUND 

The net Income of the Fund is to be used for the improvement of the Christian Education given to children and young people in the Free Churches, Missions, Sunday Schools or Junior Churches in the area covered by Cheltenham and District Education Council in 2001, and also in the wider work of Christian Education as the Trustees shall deem appropriate.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
