GIFTED AND TALENTED FOUNDATION AFRICA

Engaging gifted and talented young people throughout London, and also paying school fees and scholastic materials for gifted talented disadvantaged children in uganda
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:

  • Latest return is overdue

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
