Voice of the Martyrs
Financial data as at December 2017. Sourced from Charities Services register.
This charity is a member of a Charities Services reporting group — its parent charity files one consolidated annual return covering the whole group. Because the member's individual return is empty by design (the financial data lives at the parent level), there's nothing on the member's own books for the standard scorecard to measure. The relevant rating, financial figures, and red flags are on the parent charity's profile — follow the link above to see them. The member is part of an ACTIVE filing group; this is not the same as "stale" or "dormant".
