Making of grants, donations or subscriptions to any fund for charitable purposes in the City of London. Other charitable purposes beneficial to the community not included in the foregoing.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly male

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 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
