READ EASY HACKNEY

The Object of the charity is to advance the education of the adult public in literacy within the London Borough of Hackney.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
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
Why is the Board completely female?
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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