WORD OF LIFE

Word of Life is a small media-based Christian charity, based in the UK. We seek to make the message of the Christian Scriptures accessible to those from non-Christian backgrounds. We produce culturally sensitive courses, books, articles, calendars, and other materials, in English and a wide range of relevant languages, sold to users throughout the world.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management 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
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
