WHICKHAM DISTRICT GIRL GUIDES

Guiding is open to girls and women between the ages of 5-25 and includes all abilities and ethnic origins. Through activities we offer the opportunity to experience fun, friendship and adventure, to enable them in their development to become confident, capable and caring individuals, through their personal life and as willing citizens to contribute to their community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is completely female

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
