EMMELINE'S PANTRY

A food bank and food pantry supporting vulnerable women and their families in Manchester.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there only 4 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

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