THE OPEN DOOR CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP 

We hold Sunday and mid-week meetings to mutually support and encourage one-another and to learn more about the Christian faith and its practical application in our lives.We seek to bless the local community through children's and youth groups and by taking refreshments to the nearby Skate-Park.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been 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
  • 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:

  • One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity
  • The Board is completely 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
