ELIZABETH HARLAND ALMSHOUSE CHARITY 

Maintenance of four Almshouses Nos 1,3,5 &7 Oldham Cottages, Colton, Rugeley, Staffs.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be very 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
  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
