SPRING OF HOPE UK LIMITED

We provide a place of worship and run church services that are open to all to learn more of the Christian faith. As part of this work we provide pastoral care to those within the church. We also support other Christian projects at home and overseas. Particularly we support projects in India carried out by partner organisations to help alleviate poverty.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
