KEW NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION 

We enable people in Kew, in the London Borough of Richmond, to remain independent for as long as possible. We work closely with individuals and organisations to support people who have difficulty getting out and about, or who would appreciate a little regular company, by providing access to reliable, neighbourly help. Our volunteers offer driving, companionship, shopping, and light gardening.

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
