AFRICAN STUDIES ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM

The Association was active in holding its conference in Birmingham in 2018 - attracting 800 delegates - its largest to date.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 4 trustees

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