MID SURREY MENCAP 

We are an independent local charity for people with learning disabilities, their families and carers serving the Epsom & Ewell , Mole Valley and Banstead areas of Surrey. Our aim is to provide services for our members and currently these include clubs for adults, social events, welfare support, day services for adults and our own hall and minibus maintained for the benefits of members.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

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