UK WELCOMES REFUGEES

UK Welcomes Refugees has established the charity alongside refugee organisations accompanying displaced and resettled refugees within our communities who are in need of support and integration.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there only 4 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

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