THE INSTITUTE OF LICENSING

To promote and increase awareness of licensing related issues for its members and the public, to increase the professionalism within licensing and to promote mutual understanding between interested parties - This is achieved through regular communication with members via the website, email, letter and publications and the organisation of regional and national meetings and training.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
There are 16 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

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