THE FRIENDS OF TY GWYN SPECIAL SCHOOL 

Fundraising funds for and promoting the needs of the pupils of Ty Gwyn Special School.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition
  • This charity is based in an area of extremely high deprivation

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
