Financial data as at December 2023. Sourced from Charities Services register.

NR
Not rated — Volunteer / community organisation

Small volunteer-led organisations are not letter-graded: the standard financial template does not fit entities without paid staff, large revenue, or significant government funding. The charity's filed figures are shown above.

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.

  • No chair recorded on the register
    No chair or presiding role is recorded in the register for this board of 3. The Charities Register does not require one to be identified, so this is a gap in the public record rather than a finding about the board.
  • Current annual return overdue
    The newest annual return we hold is 33 months old — a more recent return may already be on the Charities Services register

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.
