GEMMA AND CHRIS MCGOUGH CHARITABLE FOUNDATION CIO 

To further such exclusively charitable purposes as the charity trustees in their absolute discretion see fit, in particular (but without limiting the foregoing) by making grants to charities operating in both the United Kingdom and overseas with charitable purposes that benefit children, young people and their families and the environment.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
