NORTH WALES MINERS ASSOCIATION TRUST LTD 

PRESERVATION AND INTERPRETATION OF THE MINING INDUSTRY OF NORTH WALES
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • This charity is based in an area of extremely high deprivation

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
