SORTED CHURCH

The Charity operates under a Bishop's Mission Order as a fresh expression of church ministering in the Anglican tradition to young people in north Bradford.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
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 gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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