HOSPITAL OF WILLIAM BROWNE, MERCHANT

Alms House Accommodation scheme for elderly people, thirteen flats, 24 hour care line cover provided by local authority.The medieval buildings have a voluntary museum . The original chapel still offers residents and visitors Holy Communion monthly ( Normally the first Wednesday of each month at 10.00 AM). The two remunerated persons are the Clerk to the Trustees and Custodian/Caretaker

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly male

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
