WAKEFIELD STREET KITCHEN

We help homeless and less fortunate members of our society by holding a street kitchen in Wakefield each Wednesday evening. We also help meet any pressing needs at any other time.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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