THE JOHN STRUTT CHARITY

The Charity's objectives are the advancement of religion in the area of Cumbria and the relief of poverty in Kirkby Stephen and surrounding areas.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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