THE ASKRIGG FOUNDATION 

The objects are to promote charitable purposes generally, and, in particular, the inhabitants of the Upper Wensleydale Benefice and for the general purpose of such charitable bodies as the trustees may decide. We also aim to provide three affordable homes for rent in perpetuity for local people as determined by specific criteria, a shop, and office space for community use at a reasonable rent.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile recently
Established: 5 years
