FRIENDS OF STOCKERS LAKE

Nature Conservation on a lake in Rickmansworth Hertfordshire which is a local nature reserve

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
