TONBRIDGE UNITED CHARITY

Provision of accommodation for people "who from age, ill health, accident or infirmity are wholly or in part unable to maintain themselves by their own exertions". The main activity is the management of the Five Gables cottages at Church Street, Tonbridge, Kent.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received Government grants
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
