ESSEX DEAF CHILDREN'S SOCIETY

Provide Support, Advice and Activities for families with children who have any level of hearing loss.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There have been multiple defaults for filing returns
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there 14 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
