THE CHARITY OF JAMES MORGAN FOR THE POOR

Income is provided by the rent for "the Good Friday Meadow". Part goes to the Diocese under the Glebe measure and the remainder is distributed to 10 poor households in the parish.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly male
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
