KING'S CHURCH LONDON

Church
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £6,070,399 available, equivalent to 25 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
