THE LOVETT FOUNDATION

The Lovett Foundation supports Children in Care and Care Leavers in, and around, Swindon, Bristol and Cardiff. We create relationships with the local council teams, in order to plan together how we can help financially. We are focussed on supporting young people in the transition from leaving foster care and education into independent living and gaining key skills to enter the job market.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
