SHROPSHIRE MINES TRUST LTD

Preservation and interpretation of mining remains in the UK but mainly Shropshire
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received income from Government contracts

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly 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 recently
