Organisations that share board members

Among the 216 largest charities here with trustee data, 66 are linked to at least one other through 64 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.

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.
