ROWLAND HILL AND VAUGHAN ALMSHOUSE CHARITY

Rowland Hill provides affordable housing enabling women aged 55 and over to retain their independence and live in the local community. Located in Ashford, Surrey, the 25 self contained flats are set within beautiful historic buildings and surrounded by spacious gardens.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
There are only 3 trustees
The Board is completely male
The Board composition appears to be very 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

Established: 40 years
