CEDARS CHARITABLE TRUST, GATESHEAD 

Fund-raising for the benefit of pupils at the Cedars school to buy equipment, or a mini-bus for example.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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 5 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • This charity appears to be dormant
