RUABON AND DISTRICT RELIEF IN NEED CHARITY 

To relieve poverty by helping individuals or organisations who live/operate within the Community Council areas of Cefn Mawr, Penycae, Rhosllannerchrugog and Ruabon.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
