FRIENDS OF GRANGE VIEW COUNTY FIRST SCHOOL

Fund Raising Events to buy equipment for school/children.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
