Reasons to look carefully (2)
These structural observations are drawn from public data and are worth considering before a donation. They are not allegations of wrongdoing, and they don’t affect the charity’s letter grade.
- Current annual return overdueThe newest annual return we hold is 27 months old — a more recent return may already be on the Charities Services register
- Shared trustees with reporting-group siblingsOne current trustee also serves on the board of another charity in the same Charities Services reporting group (group has 2 member charities filing one consolidated annual return). Group-internal cross-trusteeship can be operationally efficient but should be visible to donors.
Each signal is a data-driven observation, not a judgement. They fire automatically from the figures filed with Charities Services. A charity can address any of these by filing fuller disclosure or updating its officer register. Methodology: /about/methodology/concern-signals.
