WINGS & WELLIES 

Wings & Wellies, formerly known as St Georges Preschool, has been operational since 1969. We are a charity run preschool focused on providing early years education for children of ages 2.5 to 5 years. We offer a fun, innovative and engaging curriculum within a large hall and outdoor play area. We at Wings & Wellies fully understand that each child is unique and has individual requirements.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board is completely female
  • 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
