THE TIRRIL AND SOCKBRIDGE READING ROOM AND LIBRARY

Diverse events are held in the village hall e.g. concerts, lectures, slide shows, Christmas and Summer fairs. The hall is also hired out for use by local child play group, art club, entertainment group, bridge club, womens guild, bowls club, wine club, gardening club etc.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
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
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
