Overview

Gambling Connection: LEONARD CHESHIRE DISABILITY holds an active gambling licence issued by the UK Gambling Commission, first granted in 2009. The licence most likely covers charitable fundraising activities such as lotteries or prize draws, which are common among large UK charities.

LEONARD CHESHIRE DISABILITY is one of the UK's oldest and most established charities, incorporated on 3 August 1955 and now over 70 years old. It's structured as a company limited by guarantee with no share capital, which is the standard corporate form for large charities operating in the UK. Its primary activities fall under health and social care, covering residential care, specialist housing, and community support services.

The charity holds a company score of 100 (A+), reflecting its active status, long operating history, all UK-resident board members, and a PSC exemption statement consistent with charitable governance. There's no record of outstanding charges or compliance concerns, and its accounts and confirmation filings are current.

LEONARD CHESHIRE DISABILITY has held a UKGC gambling licence since 2009, now spanning over 17 years. Charities commonly hold such licences to run fundraising lotteries and raffles, which is the most likely context here given its non-commercial structure and charitable purpose.

Governance

LEONARD CHESHIRE DISABILITY has a large board of 13 current directors, all UK-resident, which is consistent with the governance expectations for a major national charity. The charity has filed a PSC exemption statement indicating no individual or entity holds significant control, a standard declaration for organisations structured as charities limited by guarantee.
