SURREY WEST COUNTY OF THE GUIDE ASSOCIATION

Girlguiding Surrey West covers the Boroughs of Elmbridge, Guildford, Runnymede, Spelthorne, Surrey Heath, Woking and Waverley. We aim to sustain and promote a stimulating and enjoyable programme of activities based on Guiding principles for girls and young women aged 5 - 25 years, delivered by trained volunteer leaders.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
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 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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
