Among the 504 largest charities here with trustee data, 168 are linked to at least one other through 163 shared board members. This shows how boards overlap, which is not the same as influence or control, and in small communities the same volunteers often serve more than one cause.
- John Henman's Charity and William Lee Charity8 shared board members
- The Stowmarket Relief Trust and The Stowmarket Educational Foundation8 shared board members
- The Walsham-Le-Willows Community Council and Memorial Hall Walsham-Le-Willows8 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.
