THE SOLOMON BROWNE MEMORIAL HALL ASSOCIATION

The successful bid with Big Lottery Fund in 2014/15 to renovate a disused building in Mousehole has now been completed; we are delighted that following the unofficial launch in August 2016 and the Royal Launch in April 2017, the Community Hall is now fully functioning and offering fantastic services to the Village and further afield. Plans are in place to open a Heritage Centre.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
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
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
