PL84U AL-SUFFA

Our charity provides free hot meals for disadvantaged and poor people in a warm environment, served by a team of friendly volunteers from a diverse community of faith and non-faith groups. The charity also provides food parcels, winter warm kits, sleeping bags and clothes during the colder months of the year. These services are currently provided in the Waltham Forest area, but we hope to expand.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There have been multiple defaults for filing returns
Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
Why is the Board composition very static?
Returns have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

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