HCPT (HOSANNA HOUSE AND CHILDREN'S PILGRIMAGE TRUST)

Mission:

Changing lives through pilgrimage, sharing Gods gifts of love, friendship and joy

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
This charity has a robust balance sheet
This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £7,057,284 available, equivalent to 33 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
Fundraising costs are high relative to funds raised

Comment by the Charity:
Recent spending and income has been variable, and reserves are larger than normal, because HCPT was unable to run its pilgrimages during the Covid-19 pandemic.
