ROTARY CLUB OF SAXMUNDHAM AND DISTRICT BENEVOLENT FUND 

Assistance to individuals and support for charities, locally. Support for the the Rotary movement's international initiatives.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly male

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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
