FRIENDS OF FORT ROYAL COMMUNITY PRIMARY SCHOOL

We support Fort Royal Community Primary School, a generic special school for children with a range of learning, physical, social and emotional needs aged 2-11.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Spending is declining
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
