DUNSTON FAMILY CHURCH

We are a local church who are running an asset transfered community centre in a deprived area of Gateshead.We run many free activities for the young and elderly as well as being the church

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
