THE WELSH COUNCIL ON ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUGS

Provide information and advice and advocacy on misuse of alcohol and other drugs.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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