WHALLEY PRE - SCHOOL

To enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children through community groups.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely female?

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
