CHARLES BALLAM'S CHARITY

We are a church based charity which provides financial support to people in the Lytchett Minster & Upton area, who are disadvantaged.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely female
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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