THE SYLVIA AND COLIN SHEPHERD CHARITABLE TRUST 

The Trust's priority is to assist charitable organisations within a 25 mile radius of York. Applications should be made in writing and should set out the purpose for which the funds would be used, total amount required and other sources of finance available.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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 was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
