READING ROOM AND VILLAGE INSTITUTE 

Village hall is used regularly by local church for coffee & meetings. Many social events e.g. dinners, bingo, quiz nights, flower shows. Funds raised from some of these events are used towards upkeep of church & hall. Village hall is an excellent facility for creating good community life & spirit.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
