WELFORD PRE-SCHOOL

The provision of pre-school education to children aged over 2 and under 5 years of age.We also run an Out of Hours Club (September 2008) providing a breakfast club and after school club in the pre-school premises.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
The Board is predominantly female
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
