THE BROADS SOCIETY

Our members share a common purpose to help secure a sustainable future for the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads as a unique and protected landscape in which leisure, tourism and the local economy can thrive in harmony with the natural environment

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

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
The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

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