CLARK FOUNDATION

Making grants towards organisations which are located close to where C & J Clark Ltd employees, ex employees, pensioners and their dependents live. Tend to make grants for capital projects or sometimes startup costs but not to individuals nor for running costs.Examples of recipients of recent grants have included schools, hospitals, community facilities, sports, village halls, preservation etc
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
  • This charity appears to be dormant
