GROVE TODDLERS 

We are a parent and toddler group open three mornings per week operating at the grove Neighbourhood Centre in Hammersmith.Each session begins with a general playtime. The group has a selection of toys, both indoor and outdoor, and there is a different creative activity each time. The group provides a snack for the children and there is a story and singing as they sit together as a group.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There is only 1 trustee
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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