GREWELTHORPE C E SCHOOL FUND

The charity raises funds to support Grewelthorpe Primary School, a small village school in a farming community. The fund helps to pay for transport and outings as well as enrichment activities that the children may not otherwise have access to.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why is the Board completely female?
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static
  • Returns have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile recently
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
