FRIENDS OF CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL

The Friends exist to cherish the history and beauty of the Cathedral; to preserve its fabric, worship, ornaments and furnishings and to provide a channel for individuals to show their support.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities

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 has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
