KENNETH ALLSOP MEMORIAL TRUST LIMITED 

The Trust owns and manages the island of Steep Holm in the Bristol Channel as a living memorial to pioneer environmentalist Kenneth Allsop. Visitors are welcome on scheduled day trips, whether tourists, or specialists in ecology and/or history. Research is encouraged and published. The 1867 Victorian Barracks houses the island Visitor Centre. Donations and subscriptions help with expenses.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

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
