ADAMS FOUNDATION, WEM, TRUST

The provision of facilities for the Thomas Adams School together with the promotion of education by awarding prizes to the pupils.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

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