MARTHA AND MARY ASSOCIATION 

Situate on the main shopping street in Heaton and open every weekday and alternate Saturdays we provide a place to pop in for a cuppa with friends where many vunerable people find a welcome, access to fairly traded goods, access to advice and community information and a venue for other charities and groups. Free internet access. The opportunity for volunteers to be involved in the community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 17 years
