ONE PERCENT SCHEME 

ONE PERCENT SCHEME IS A CHARITY WHICH POOLS MEMBERS DONATIONS AND SHARES THIS MONEY BETWEEN 4 SMALL CHARITIES. THESE ARE CHOSEN BY IT'S MEMBERS IN AN ANNUAL ELECTION. OPS WORKS TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE CHARITIES IT SUPPORTS AND THE ISSUES THEY FACE. WE BELIEVE THAT MONEY CAN BE GIVEN MORE EFFECTIVELY AND SUSTAINABLY WHEN THERE IS A STONG LINK BETWEEN DONORS AND BENEFICIARIES.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
