MUSLIM YOUTH HELPLINE 

Our core service is a free and confidential emotional support service service available nationally via the telephone, email, web chat and letter. The service uses male and female volunteers trained in basic counselling skills to respond to client enquiries.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • 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
