  • 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

Financial issues to consider:

  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
