DON'T FORGET THE KIDS 

In a safe and informal setting we encourage families to work together and be creative. Arts and Crafts, Drama and music are some of the activities children look forward to participating in. Healthy snacks and beverages are provided. There is no emphasis on cancer or death. We are an open group and children can share as little or as much as they like with their peers.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There have been multiple defaults for filing returns
  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

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 and returns have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 3 years
  • This charity appears to be dormant
