SEACROFT FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS 

Our aim is to support over 60's living in Seacroft, Leeds who are in need by reason of their age, ill health, disability financial hardship or other disadvantage. We provide practical help, information, advice and activities to enable people to maintain independence, health and social contacts.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
