    ROTARY CLUB OF BODMIN TRUST FUND

    Provision of assistance to the young and elderly in the area covered by Bodmin Rotary Club through grants and donations and also contributions to the Rotary Foundation Charity.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • Over half the Board have joined recently

    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
    • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
