RELATE KENT CONSORTIUM 

The company was formed in November 2000, and was registered as a charity in January 2001. It provides Relate based educational and other services not supplied by Relate Centres operating within the County of Kent.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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