THE HEREFORDSHIRE HISTORIC CHURCHES TRUST

The Trust exists to raise money to assist with the maintenance, repairs and improvement of historic churches of all christian denominations and to raise awareness within the administrative county of Herefordshire. This assistance is given by making grants and occasionally, in appropriate circumstances, by offering interest free loans.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
