THE COTTERIDGE CHURCH

The Cotteridge Church serves the community through worship, involvement in the local foodbank, running a cafe and an older adults centre. Alongside church events, it also acts as a hire venue to a wide range of groups throughout the week. The Church was formed in 1986 when local Church of England, Methodist and United Reformed Churches combined as a Single Congregation Ecumenical Partnership.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

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 and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 13 years
