TONBRIDGE COUNSELLING SERVICE

Therapeutic counselling and training in counselling

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
