LEAGUE OF WELLDOERS 

Monday to Friday we provide daily subsidised lunches and activities e.g. exercise classes, theatre visits, afternoon dances etc for older people as well as facilities for all ages including drama and sport. We also have meeting rooms which are used by other organisations from the local area.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male
  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
