AMADUDU WOMEN'S REFUGE

Objective is to work for the promotion of any charitable purposes for the benefit of women and children experiencing domestic violence, by the advancement of education, the protection of health and the relief of poverty, sickness and distress. The Charity provides temporary accommodation and is specialised primarily but not exclusive to needs of Black and Ethnic Minority women and children.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

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