COMMUNITY CONCERN LONDON

POVERTY RELIEF BY FOOD DISTRIBUTION, URGENT BILL SETTLEMENTS AND CASH FUNDING.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
Why are there only 3 trustees?
Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

Income has been volatile recently
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
