    H B BICKET CHARITABLE TRUST

    Established to provide financial assistance to the local charities in Liverpool.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • This charity only provides its support via other charities
    • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

    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 was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
