FRIENDS OF THE MEAD SCHOOL

The Friends of the Mead School works to organise events that enrich the life of children and the local community. We aim to provide events in which families can work and play together and have fun! We also raise funds to help develop aspects of the school and its environment which are not normally funded by Local Authority budgets to enrich the life of the school and the community as a whole.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
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 completely female
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
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 22 years
