Why is there no Clarity Score for Friends of the Vale yet?

The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Friends of the Vale 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. How scoring works
