MUSLIM COMMUNITY OF ESSEX 

The principal activities of the charity continue to advance the education of the public in particular but not exclusively by addressing social, religious and political challenges affecting Muslim communities in the United Kingdom.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile recently
