AGE UK CITY OF LONDON 

The trustees agreed that the principle areas of focus of the Charity are :-- to support direct service provision both itself and through connections with Age Concerns/ Age UK?s in neighbouring London boroughs- to fundraise to support services for older people in London- to act as an oversight and co-ordination body for Age Concerns/Age UK services delivered in the City of London
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 including the Government
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly female
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
