YORKSHIRE AND HUMBERSIDE MATERNITY STREAM OF THE CITY OF SANCTUARY CIO 

Raising awareness, encouraging cohesion in provision of maternity services for asylum seeking and refugee women, confidence building and enabling volunteers and developing and sharing resources.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

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
  • 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
