THE DIRECTORS CHARITABLE FOUNDATION 

Supports directors in need and inspires young people from all backgrounds to consider careers as directors. The Directors Support Scheme provides emergency short-term financial help to directors in need. The Get Directing! project mentors young people and teachers in and outside of the school environment. The Mental Health and Wellbeing service offers support, events and online resources.
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
