HENRY SMITH 

We support the poor and needy in Little Bookham, usually around 8 individuals, with vouchers to be used in a local shop. Occasionally we make a grant to an individual for a specific reason.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are only 2 trustees
  • 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
