LOWES ALLOTMENT 

Management of Holt Lowes SSSI to benefit wildlife (in accordance with requirements of Natural England) and to enhance public access for quiet enjoyment of the countryside and its wildlife.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
