Self-Dealing Concern
The charity has made loans to Mark Shooter personally totalling up to £20,000 since 2013. The Charity Commission issued regulatory advice regarding conflict-of-interest management. This is notable because Shooter is both the sole director and sole secretary of the foundation — creating a situation where he could authorise loans to himself without independent oversight.
