CORNWALL RED SQUIRREL PROJECT 

Conservation charity promoting understanding of the native red squirrel within Cornwall, and undertaking habitat improvement with a view to reintroducing the wild red squirrel to Cornwall.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board composition appears to be very static
  • Latest return is overdue

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years
