Common questions about Aapna Services Limited's rating, finances, and Charity Commission status.
Is Aapna Services Limited a good charity? +
Aapna Services Limited scores 62 out of 100 (3 stars — Needs improvement) on CharityCompare's Clarity Score, our independent read of its UK regulator filings. Around 80% of its spending goes to charitable activities (3-yr avg) and its accounts are up to date. That reflects how transparent and financially healthy it looks on paper — it does not measure the real-world impact of its work, so treat it as one factor alongside the cause you care about. CharityCompare never tells you where to donate.
Is Aapna Services Limited a legitimate charity? +
The register data used for this profile lists Aapna Services Limited as a registered charity (charity number 1136373). Verify it on the official register: https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/charity-details/?regId=1136373&subId=0. Check the current entry and the identity of anyone requesting money. Registration does not verify a particular appeal; Clarity Score summarises filing transparency, not programme impact.
What is Aapna Services Limited's charity number? +
Aapna Services Limited's charity number is 1136373. Check that number on the official register (Charity Commission, OSCR or CCNI) or this CharityCompare profile before you donate — scammers sometimes reuse real numbers on fake appeals.
What is Aapna Services Limited's charity rating? +
Aapna Services Limited scores 62 out of 100 on CharityCompare (3 stars — Needs improvement). The Clarity Score (method v1.1) sums four pillars from UK regulator filings: Accountability & Transparency (40 pts), Financial Health (30), Financial Efficiency (20), and Community Support (10). Stars use the same bands as those labels — 90+ is 5★ Exceptional. It is not an impact ranking.
Does Aapna Services Limited have reviews and complaints? +
CharityCompare does not host public user reviews for Aapna Services Limited. Instead you get a filing-based Clarity Score, cause spend, reserves and red flags such as late accounts (one red flag on this profile: very high reserves). For formal complaints about a charity, contact the Charity Commission, OSCR, CCNI or the Fundraising Regulator as appropriate.
How much of my donation reaches Aapna Services Limited? +
Across the recent disclosed accounts used for this score, 80% of Aapna Services Limited's total spending went to charitable activities (3-yr avg across disclosed years).

What are Aapna Services Limited's overheads? +
Across the recent disclosed accounts used for this score, fundraising costs were about 20% of total expenditure and fundraising plus separately reported governance figures amount to about 21% of expenditure (2023–2025, disclosed years); these categories can overlap, so this is not a distinct total of all administration costs at Aapna Services Limited. Aapna Services Limited's annual return for the year ending 31 March 2025 reports no employees paid more than £60,000. Individual salaries, including the chief executive's, are disclosed in the trustees' annual report rather than on the register.
