WAINMAN TRUST 

As a charitable business, the Directors are devoted to opening a care home for older people, run with a Christian ethos. Meanwhile the charity runs three clubs for older people in the Nottingham area who are experiencing isolation and loneliness to enable them to make new friends and re-engage with the community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be very 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
  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
Established: 11 years
