WESLEY CENTRE, HARROGATE

We manage premises which provide for regular acts of worship for members of the Methodist Church and non-members alike, and for worship for other Christian denominations. We seek to promote the whole mission of the Church by reaching out into the community, staging special events, services and concerts; and we provide facilities for other charities and community services at discounted rates

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

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 was lower than spending in the latest year
