THE CHARITY OF SIR WILLIAM JOSEPH JORDAN 

This is a local charity for the relief of individuals in need in parts of Finsbury, London EC1 and EC2.

Analysis by Giving is Great

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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
