THE ABBEYFIELD (WEYMOUTH) SOCIETY LIMITED 

Provision of accommodation to elderly persons.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants and contracts
  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but unrestricted reserves are available
