AMITY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION

Foundation has set up in 2006 and 2010 it has become a registered charity that operates in North-East London, especially in the areas like Hackney, Walthamstow, Leyton, Ilford, Barking and Stoke Newington. The main purpose is providing modern education via different activities and facilities. At the moment our head centre has moved to Ilford.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

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