WAREHAM LIONS CLUB (CIO)

The charity raises funds to enable it to make grants to organisations and individuals in need within its local area. We operate a tail lift enables minibus using volunteer drivers from within the club to provide transport to mainly elderly local residents. We support international appeals raised by our parent body, Lions Clubs International.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
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
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is completely male
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
