THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF SAINT MARTINS 

We offer religious services as a parish church of the Church of England as well as community support and pastoral care to parishioners of St Martin's Hereford. We serve the whole community, and have specific services to support the elderly, the marginalised, the bereaved and families and children. Our property is used by groups from across the community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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