BELLEVUE PLAYGROUP LIMITED

Provide safe stimulating play for children aged from 2 to 4 years of age. Fully qualified staff.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 2 trustees
The Board is completely female
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
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
