NEWBURY AND DISTRICT TALKING NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION 

Provision of recorded local news and information for the blind and partially sighted of West Berkshire
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 48 years
