RECORD SOCIETY OF LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE 

Transcription and publication of original documents relating to the history of the counties of Lancashire and Cheshire
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

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 is declining
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
