FRIENDS OF MINEHEAD FIRST SCHOOL

Fundraising in order to advance and enhance the education of the pupils of the school by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There is only 1 trustee
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending

Established: 43 years
