THE TRURO DIOCESAN GUILD OF RINGERS

Serving the church in the diocese of Truro by encouraging members to ring for services and on other appropriate occasions, promoting care and restoration of rings of bells and their fittings, and in other ways.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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
  • There are 18 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
