Overview

Gambling Connection: CHILDREN ON THE EDGE held a UKGC gambling licence, first issued in November 2021, which has since been surrendered. It appears in the Saferwager database as a formerly licensed gambling entity.

CHILDREN ON THE EDGE is a private company limited by guarantee, a structure typically used by charities and non-profit organisations rather than commercial businesses. It's been active for over 22 years, incorporated in December 2003, and remains in good standing with Companies House. The company's long and clean track record contributes directly to its top-tier governance score.

The company held a gambling licence issued by the UK Gambling Commission, first granted in November 2021. That licence has since been surrendered, meaning CHILDREN ON THE EDGE no longer holds an active UKGC authorisation. Surrendering a licence is a voluntary process and doesn't indicate enforcement action.

With five current directors, all UK-resident, and a PSC exemption consistent with its non-profit structure, the company's governance picture is straightforward. There are no outstanding charges and its filings are up to date.

Governance

CHILDREN ON THE EDGE has a board of five current directors, all British nationals resident in the United Kingdom. The company operates under a PSC exemption consistent with its non-profit legal structure, confirming there's no individual or entity with significant control registered at Companies House. Accounts and confirmation statements are current.
