ALNWICK U3A 

We provide a focal point for people in their third age wishing to benefit from continued education, emphasizing self-help. We provide a framework for people with similar interests to form Interest Groups. These people include those with a lifelong involvement in a subject, plus those whose careers took them elsewhere but have always held an interest which they only now have the time to develop.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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 lower than spending in the latest year
