BERWICK ANIMAL RESCUE KENNELS 

Operation of animal rescue kennels, including rehoming, care and treatment of all animals.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Established: 24 years
