LADY WATERFORD HALL TRUST

to maintain and upkeep Ford Village Parish Hall for the benefit of the residents of Ford parish
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 3 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely female?

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
