THE HAMILTON CHARITY 

The benefit of poor persons or persons in reduced circumstances who shall have been resident in the Parish of Long Melford for not less than three years with power to apply capital to purchase or hire land to be used as a recreation or sports ground for the Parish
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely 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
  • 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
