THE FRIENDS OF CHRIST CHURCH SPITALFIELDS TRUST 

The restoration and future maintenance of Christ Church Spitalfields as one of the major examples of European Baroque architecture
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
