2/88 MANCHESTER SCOUT GROUP

Scout Association, Scout Group

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received Government grants
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is predominantly 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
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
