SFAC 

SFAC provides training, mentoring, and advice to adults working to care for and protect children. We provide support in social work, psychology (including trauma, therapeutic care, and protective behaviours), and judicial practices and processes. We work alongside local organisations (NGOs, governments and courts) and provide subsidies to small organisations so our support is accessible to all.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
