SCAR COVER UP FREEDOM FUND

SCUFF provides funding for tattoos to cover self-harm scars for those who cannot afford it, training in self-harm crisis management for those caring for people who are self-harming and we will be offering peer support for people struggling with self-harm

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
