CONGRESBURY SCOUTS AND GUIDES

As is normal with Scout/Cub/Guide/Brownie/Rainbow groups. Camping, meeting, sailing and all sorts of inddor and outdoor activities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

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