TABS INTERNATIONAL

We provide opportunities for disadvantaged young people from the UK to volunteer in Christian community development and aid projects in Africa that we also support. We provide a short gap-type experience for the volunteers that encourages the development of their life-skills, widens their knowledge of the world and affords them the chance to give something back through supporting others in need.

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
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
