THE HOPE TRUST OXFORD

The Trust seeks to advance the Christian faith through partnership with organisations that provide relief to those in need and that promote Christian education. For example, the Trust currently employs a debt centre manager in partnership with Christians Against Poverty.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management 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
