To support the restoration, repair, maintenance and beautification of the Parish Church of St Nicolas, Great Bookham in the Diocese of Guildford (hereinafter called ?the Church?) and of the monuments, fittings, structural fixtures, stained glass, furniture, ornaments and chattels in the church and churchyard, including paths, walls, gates and main services belonging to the Church
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
