THE MALDON PIONEERS ASSOCIATION 

Social/Educational activities for adults with mild learning difficulties. 2/3 activities each month, a weekly term time group, summer scheme and a week's holiday.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
