Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee is a registered charity (no. 1193321) working in disability across the United Kingdom. Its latest Charity Commission filing does not disclose a charitable-activities spend split in recent filings, holding roughly 83 months of reserves, though its recent accounts were filed late. Reported income changed sharply in 2023 (likely a merger, transfer or reporting change) — year-on-year trend labels are not meaningful across that step. CharityCompare's Clarity Score rates the organisation only from public Charity Commission accounts — accountability, financial health, efficiency and community support — not the quality or impact of its programmes. Summarised from public filings — Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee hasn't added its own description yet. [Work here?

Four pillars — Accountability & Transparency (40), Financial Health (30), Financial Efficiency (20), and Community Support (10) — each scored on a continuous scale, not pass/fail cutoffs. A statutory inquiry sets the score to 0 automatically. [Full methodology →](https://www.charitycompare.org.uk/methodology) Accountability & Transparency Scored from filings 40 points — filing history (15), trustee oversight (15, scaling up to a board of three or more), declared policies (10). Financial Health Scored from filings 30 points — reserves (15, full marks 3–24 months, tapering on both sides), income stability (10), liabilities to assets (5, scaling down as debt rises). Financial Efficiency Scored from filings 20 points — program expense ratio and fundraising cost, each on a graduated scale (not a single cutoff). Kept at 20% of the total: financial-ratio scoring alone is not a reliable effectiveness signal (see "why not just an overhead ratio?" below). Community Support Scored from filings 10 points — volunteer-to-staff ratio from Charity Commission workforce data, scaling continuously up to a 2:1 ratio. Overall score Sum of all pillar points.

Is Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee a good charity? + Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee scores 51 out of 100 (2 stars — Poor) on CharityCompare's Clarity Score, our independent read of its UK regulator filings. Its recent filings do not disclose a charitable-activities spend split and its accounts are late. 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 Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee a legitimate charity? + Yes — Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee is a legitimate registered charity (charity number 1193321). Verify it on the official register: https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/en/charity-search/-/charity-details/1193321. Registration proves status; Clarity Score then summarises filing transparency on paper, not programme impact. What is Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's charity number? + Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's charity number is 1193321. 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.

The Clarity Score V1 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 Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee have reviews and complaints? + CharityCompare does not host public user reviews for Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee. Instead you get a filing-based Clarity Score, cause spend, reserves and red flags such as late accounts (2 filing concern(s) noted on this profile). For formal complaints about a charity, contact the Charity Commission, OSCR, CCNI or the Fundraising Regulator as appropriate. How much of my donation reaches Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee? + Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee does not disclose a charitable-activities spend split in its recent UK regulator filings, so there is no official figure for how much of a donation reaches the cause. CharityCompare reports this as "not disclosed" rather than assuming a number. What are Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's overheads? + Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's recent UK regulator filings do not disclose a fundraising or governance cost split, so no official overhead percentage is available. The filings CharityCompare uses do not publish CEO or senior-staff pay, so we cannot say what Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's chief executive is paid — where disclosure rules apply, senior pay appears in the trustees' annual report on the Charity Commission register. How much income does Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee receive? + Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee reported £113k total income in its 2025 accounts, based on UK regulator filings. Five-year trend: restructured. Are Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's accounts up to date? + Filing status: late (last filing 2026-06-24).

An open statutory inquiry scores 0. The score measures reporting on paper, not programme impact. CharityCompare is free for donors, takes no commission on donations, and scores cannot be bought. How often is this page updated? + This profile was last updated on 17 July 2026 from the latest UK regulator data available to CharityCompare, and Chatham and Rochester Muslim Committee's most recent accounts cover 2025. Scores and figures refresh whenever we re-ingest the register, so the page reflects our latest data pull rather than a one-off review.
