    ANNA PLOWDEN TRUST 

    Makes grants to individuals and organisations in connection with training in skills and awareness of conservation of the man made heritage
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

    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
    Established: 25 years
