THE DORSET ARMY CADET LEAGUE 

Fund raising to cover costs of items and activities, not funded through National or Local Official sources, to enable the Dorset Army Cadets to carry out their training in an appropriate manner. In addition the league supports young cadets whose income may require financial support to attend collective training away from home.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is completely male
  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile recently
