THE TALKING NEWSPAPER OF HARROW

Provides a weekly recording of news & information, gathered from the local press and disseminated to those whose sight is impaired or who have a temporary or permanent condition that inhibits their ability to read a newspaper.

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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
