PETER LANG CHILDREN'S TRUST 

?To increase the number of babies and toddlers (aged conception to 3 years of age) in Gloucestershire who experience loving, nurturing and harm-free childhoods.?
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
