MISTERTON PRE-SCHOOL GROUP

Educational activities for children 2-4 years old.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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
  • Why is the Board completely female?
  • and returns have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
