THE PETER BEDFORD TRUST

The charity supports the work of the Peter Bedford Housing Association which provides opportunities for socially excluded and disabled people to become independent through a combination of housing, work, training, employment and personal support. The charity supports the Association's work by providing suitable premises and making grants and loans to support its work.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 2 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely male?
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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