- Blessed Cyprian Tansi Catholic Society Uk and Marian Mission for The Poor3 shared board members
- Blessed Cyprian Tansi Catholic Society Uk and Our Lady's Homestead at Nympsfield in The County of Gloucester3 shared board members

Connections between organisations through shared board members describe how boards overlap. They are not evidence of influence, control or coordination, and many overlaps are ordinary in small communities. Only elected councillors are named. No addresses or other personal details are shown; organisation links point to existing public GovReg profiles.
