THE CONGREGATION OF THE SISTERS OF THE SACRED HEARTS (PICPUS) 

The relief of poverty and advancement of religion or education connected with the Roman Catholic Religion in particular, but not limited to, the support of the elderly in England and Ireland.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board is completely female
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
