To advance the Christian religion in any part of the world, including the UK. To relieve hardship, distress and suffering of persons in need in any part of the world, including the UK.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male
  • 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
