UK AUTISM FOUNDATION 

The charity exists to support, lobby and campaign on behalf of parents and carers of children and adults with Autism and Aspergers syndrome. The charity seeks long term to establish a UK Autism School and Centre in the London Borough of Redbridge to provide assessment and educational support which may not be provided by other agencies.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
