Overview

Gambling Connection: A linked entity trading as Wateraid held a UKGC gambling licence first granted in November 2015, covering roughly ten years of licensing before it was surrendered. WATERAID itself is a charity and isn't a commercial gambling operator.

WATERAID is a well-established non-profit organisation incorporated on 30 January 1984, making it one of the longer-standing entities in the Companies House register. It operates as a private company limited by guarantee with no share capital, the structure most commonly used by charities and membership bodies, and it carries an active status with fully up-to-date filings.

The company scores 100 out of 100, earning an A+ grade, which reflects its age, continuous active status, clean compliance record, and the presence of a formal PSC exemption statement on file. That exemption is typical for charitable organisations that don't have identifiable persons with significant control in the conventional corporate sense. Its registered office is in London's Canary Wharf district.

WATERAID isn't a gambling company and its SIC code covers other social work activities. Its presence in this database follows from a UKGC gambling licence associated with a linked entity, which has since been surrendered.

Governance

WATERAID has a large and internationally diverse board of 13 current directors. The board includes UK-resident members alongside directors based in Switzerland, Zambia, the United States, and Pakistan, reflecting its global charitable remit. A formal PSC exemption statement has been in place since October 2016, which is standard for organisations of this type.
