ROMILEY AND MARPLE LIONS CLUB (CIO) 

Limited fundraising opportunities due to Covid 19 but club has been successful on several fronts gaining a grant from LCIF as well as limited local activities. Several good causes have been supported and we are continuing this with a very successful Christmas effort for the next financial year.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is completely male
  • 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
