THE FRIENDS OF FECKENHAM PARISH CHURCH

The Friends of Feckenham Church was founded in order to ensure that Feckenham Parish Church remains the symbolic centre of our village and continues to be able to be used for a wide range of community activities.The maintenance and heritage of the building, fabric and surrounds are our principal concern. This is to be achieved by raising money, to be used to maintain, repair and enhance'

Analysis by Giving is Great

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity only provides its support via other charities
Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

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