STOPSO UK

StopSO UK is an independent national charity which aims to reduce sexual abuse in the UK. We offer 1-2-1 face to face therapy to those concerned or worried about their sexual thoughts or behaviour before an offence is committed, and to victims and survivors of sexual abuse. Therapy is delivered in communities across the UK.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
