THE ABBEY ROW CHAPEL (MALMESBURY) CHARITABLE TRUST

Support of chapels
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
