Controversies and regulatory action

  • No Charity Commission inquiry, Official Warning or Gazette insolvency notice naming this charity was found, and its register entry shows no regulatory alert;[16] it is not among the charities named in the Commission's cheque-cashing class-inquiry announcements (May, September and December 2025) or in the September 2026 statement of results.[17][18][19][20] The charities in the Commission's settlements class inquiry (opened August 2026) have not been named, so it is not known whether this charity is among them.[21]
  • Unexplained items. The £49,972 of donations is not itemised; debtors of £107,501 are unchanged from the previous year and not explained; the "Achievements and performance" section is empty (PDF p.4, 8, 11).[2]
  • Trust or company? The report describes the charity as constituted by a deed of trust but also says "All of the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1" (PDF p.4).[2]
  • Late filing. The register shows the latest accounts as received 3 days late.[16]
