THE BROMBOROUGH CHURCH INSTITUTE 

Working closely with the Parish Church the Charity provides safe and comfortable Hall, stage and kitchen facilities either freely or with a small charge to any approved club, society or organisation within the Wirral community but in particular to those activities involving the young or teenagers. Usage involving politics or the sale of alcohol is not allowed.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
