FRIENDS OF DEAN SCHOOL

To hold fundraising events to support the school to provide equipment/resources to benefit the children which the school would otherwise be unable to afford
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
