AFRICAN CARRIBBEAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION UK

The aim of the Association is the promotion, preservation and protection of oral health amongst ethnic minority groups, especially within the African and Caribbean communities in the UK, and the world at large.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 2 trustees?
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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