LEGASEE EDUCATIONAL TRUST

Legasee works with veterans to advance the education of the public in the effects of military activities and to promote the conservation of records of veterans who have been involved in military conflict. We achieve this by capturing these experiences and observations on digital film for future generations and developing projects that educate and inform the students and general public of today.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

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