MANOR HOUSE DEVELOPMENT TRUST 

Champion of social and economic regeneration activities in North Hackney.Ownership of assets to promote wellbeing, community cohesion, education, and economic benefit
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 including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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
