BANGLADESHI MENTAL HEALTH FORUM

The BMHF prides itself on being a grassroots organisation that aims to raise awareness of mental health and support people on a local level. Our current work involves organising local mental health awareness raising event/workshops, supporting people by organising local activities (social/educational) and one to one support.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

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
Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Established: 15 years
