ACCELERATE & ACCESS FOUNDATION 

The Accelerate and Access Foundation?s (AAAF) aim is to promote social mobility by increasing the number of students from poorer backgrounds accessing leading universities. AAAF does this by providing a multi-year programme of support to low and middle income students focussed on raising aspirations, providing advice and guidance, academic support and enrichment.
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 rather static
  • Latest return is overdue

Financial issues to consider:

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