ANDY'S ANGELS 

We run a Grief Play Cafe in Worthing, West Sussex. The Cafe is a safe play space for young children and a cafe for refreshments for adults and young people. This is an overall a safe space for families to bring their children to where there are other children and families experiencing loss. To relief the feeling of being isolated and alone during the grief journey.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
