FREE THE CHILD

FREE THE CHILDRUNS A CHARITY SHOP IN COLINDALE, NORTH WEST LONDON TO SUPPORT DEPRIVED ADULT AND YOUNG PEOPLE

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is completely female
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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