CAMBRIAN COMMUNITY CENTRE 

To benefit inhabitants of the Richmond area, especially the Queens Road Estate, with facilities for education, health & recreation whether by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, financial hardship or social & economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare & with the object of improving the condition of life of the said inhabitants.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

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