EUROPEAN SQUIRREL INITIATIVE 

To promote the survival of the red squirrel and the preservation of trees and woodlands in the UK and throughout Europe through control of the grey squirrel and invasive alien species.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely male
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
