BRYMBO HERITAGE TRUST

To restore Brymbo's purpose by turning a decaying underused area into a nationally recognised visitor/educational centre and to provide studios, apprentice workshops and office spaces for start up businesses. By this re-use of our historical industrial buildings for this wide variety of purposes the Trust aims to promote the social and economic regeneration of Brymbo.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
