BRIGHTON & HOVE UNWAGED, ADVICE AND RIGHTS CENTRE

BHUARC runs a drop-in Centre for the unemployed/unwaged and low waged in Hollingdean, a housing estate in Brighton. We provide welfare and benefits advice, legal and employment rights advice as well as cheap computer access and a free clothes exchange. We are a TUC recognised unemployed centre.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile recently
