JEWISH JOINT BURIAL SOCIETY 

Provision of burial and cremation facilities to both members of synagogues, funeral subscribers and non-members.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but very substantial unrestricted reserves are available
Established: 55 years
