CHURCHES TOGETHER IN ALL LINCOLNSHIRE

Encouraging and enabling church bodies in Lincolnshire to act together; for example : providing training course, conferences on relevant subjects, times of prayer and discussion, etc. We also act as a voice for the churches to the wider community, in particular public bodies - working with Lincolnshire County Council to promote road safety. We organise the annual Road Victims Memorial Service
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities

Financial issues to consider:

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • 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
