DRIFFIELD TALKING NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION

PRODUCTION AND SUPPLY OF AUDIO VERSIONS OF LOCAL NEWS AND MAGAZINE STYLE FEATURES
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there only 2 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely female?
  • Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
