Overview

Gambling Connection: TEENAGE CANCER TRUST held a UKGC gambling licence from October 2019 for approximately 6.3 years before surrendering it. Charitable organisations sometimes hold such licences to run fundraising lotteries or raffles on behalf of their cause.

TEENAGE CANCER TRUST is a private limited company by guarantee, a legal structure commonly used by charities that don't distribute profits to members. It was incorporated on 10 April 1997 and has remained active ever since, giving it nearly three decades of corporate history. Its registered office is in London, WC1V 7AA.

The organisation isn't primarily a gambling business. Its SIC classification falls under other human health activities, and it isn't flagged as gambling-related in Companies House records. But it did hold a UKGC gambling licence, most likely to run charitable lottery or raffle-style fundraising activities, which is how it appears in this database. That licence has since been surrendered.

TEENAGE CANCER TRUST scores 97 out of 100 (A+) on Saferwager's trust scale, one of the highest ratings in the database. It's been incorporated for nearly 29 years, holds active status, has a large board of UK-resident directors, and carries no outstanding charges. The PSC exemption on file reflects its charitable structure rather than any opacity around ownership.

Governance

TEENAGE CANCER TRUST has a large board of 11 current UK-resident directors, consistent with the governance requirements of a well-established charity. A PSC exemption statement has been on file since March 2017, recording that no individual or entity has significant control over the company. This is standard for charities structured as companies limited by guarantee.
