THE SHROPSHIRE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY (WISLEY TRAINEE) CHARITABLE TRUST

Award of grants and bursaries to students from Shropshire and contiguous counties undertaking horticultural training at RHS Gardens or other RHS approved training courses.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
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
The Board is completely male

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
