TURNING THE TIDE, UK 

Turning the Tide is a charity run by Christians who long for a turning of the tide for good in people's lives, especially those of the young. We recognise the importance of children and family in society, together with the need and the potential for different generations to bless each other.Whilst many in our various Teams are Christians, we reach out to all, those of any faith and of no faith.
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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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