## Why is there no Clarity Score for Falkirk District Scout Council yet?

The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Falkirk District Scout Council is on the official
register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so
we show its official register record instead of a rating. A rating can be added when the charity enters
our scoring dataset with enough filing data. Payment never influences a rating.

## What should you check before donating to Falkirk District Scout Council?

- Match the registered name and number to the appeal. A real charity number can be copied by someone impersonating the organisation.
