6TH MOTTINGHAM SCOUTS

Bringing Scouting to the Young People in the area, to help give them confidence, sense of adventure and outdoor skills.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There is only 1 trustee
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
