LEATHERHEAD COMMUNITY HUB 

The charity provides facilities and services for the local community through acting as an umbrella organisation for other charitable and public/private partners in and around North Leatherhead Surrey.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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

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
