ISLES OF SCILLY CHARITABLE TRUST COMPRISING THE EDWARD MCDONALD FUND AND THE PILOTS WIDOWS FUND

For such charitable institutions, organisations or purposes within the Isles of Scilly as the Trustees from time to time think fit.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
