NATWEST SOCIAL & COMMUNITY CAPITAL 

The charity aims to help local community groups through, for example, the provision of loans to Social Enterprises, charities, not-for-profit organisations & Responsible Finance providers. Our mission is to create positive change for vulnerable & disadvantaged groups across the United Kingdom through the provision of finance to viable social ventures that have been refused traditional bank lending
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
