WINSTON PLAYING FIELD ASSOCIATION

Provision and maintenance of village playing and recreational field and associated facilities
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

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