AFRICAN REFUGEE WOMEN ("NZOTO YA NKOLO") 

Our organisation was established to create avenues for increasing awareness on the rights and opportunities and to promote the integration of isolated African adult ex-offenders refugee French-speaking living with mental health problems in Haringey North London into their new host society; provide advice and guidance on issues such as mental health, education, employment, sport and training.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

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