FRIENDS OF POTTERS VILLAGE

FOPV was set up to help relieve poverty, sickness and malnutrition among children of the Kisoro district, S W Uganda. It aims to achieve this by funding a crisis centre, for the admission and nurture of abandoned and orphaned babies, and a medical centre for care of all local children up to age 12. It also assists with re-settlement and after care of children , in birth or foster families.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
