CATTERICK GARRISON PRE-SCHOOL GROUP 

Our charity provides continuity of care for children of a transient population (HM Forces) from the age of 6 weeks to 11 years.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather 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
  • Spending is declining
  • Income has been volatile recently
