THE FRIENDS OF ST DAVIDS CATHEDRAL 

To support and assist the Dean & Chapter of St Davids Cathedral in the maintenance of St Davids Cathedral.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

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 has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
