THE DEVON FEDERATION OF WOMEN'S INSTITUTES 

The WI exists to educate women, to enable them to provide an effective role in the community, expand their horizons and to develop and pass on skills. This is achieved through educational courses covering IT, cookery, craft, cultural pursuits, sport and health and many others. These are run by qualified tutors either at County level or our own Denman College.
Analysis by Giving is Great

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 predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

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