STANFORD LE HOPE AND DISTRICT U3A 

We have one general meeting each month and then have groups who meet for social and educational sessions, we are made up of mainly retired members and one of our aims is to keep active in mind and body and to make new friends and support each other.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
