THE COURTYARD FARM TRUST

The Courtayrd Farm Trust funds charitable activity in the Parish of Ringstead, nature conservation work in Norfolk, manages Holme Marsh SSSI jointly with the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, and encourages public access to Courtyard Farm. We occasionally fund more general chaitable activity, but only with small, one-off grants. We do not fund individuals. At present our income is fully committed.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
