HARFORD CHARITABLE TRUST 

We are a small Family Trust making grants (maximum £2,000) to registered charities (not individuals). Our principal areas of interest are children and families, the disadvantaged and the disabled, small charities operating in developing countries and emphasising self help and environmental projects. In the UK, we focus on the South and South West.
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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
