NAILSEA TITHE BARN TRUST 

Nailsea Tithe Barn Trust exists to foster a strong sense of community around the magnificently restored medieval Tithe Barn. The Trust organises cultural, social and recreational events for all members of the Nailsea community including working with local schools to widen the awareness of the Barn's history by offering teaching and learning opportunities at the Barn.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Established: 10 years
