EALING TRINITY METHODIST CIRCUIT

The circuit is responsible for the maintenance and support of ministry in the spiritual, pastoral, and administrative leadership of the ten churches. Ministers are paid a stipend and reimbursed expenses by the circuit to allow them to pursue their calling to serve God in his Church. Accommodation for ministers is provided in properties that are owned and maintained at the circuit's expense.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 29 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

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
