What does Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA do?

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA is a registered charity (no. 1170049) working in disability in London · KT24 5BZ. Its latest Charity Commission filing does not disclose a charitable-activities spend split in recent filings, and files its annual accounts on time. 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.

How we score charities +

The Clarity Score is a 100-point rating from UK regulator filings (Charity Commission for England and Wales, OSCR and CCNI). 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 →

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. Display stars use the same bands as the labels: 90–100 → 5★ Exceptional; 75–89 → 4★ Good; 60–74 → 3★ Needs improvement; 1–59 → 2★ Poor; 0 → not rated.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA's rating, finances, and Charity Commission status.

Is Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA a good charity? +

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA scores 64 out of 100 (3 stars — Needs improvement) 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 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 Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA a legitimate charity? +

Yes — Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA is a legitimate registered charity (charity number 1170049). Verify it on the official register: https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/en/charity-search/-/charity-details/1170049. Registration proves status; Clarity Score then summarises filing transparency on paper, not programme impact.

What is Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA's charity number? +

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA's charity number is 1170049. 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 Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA's charity rating? +

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA scores 64 out of 100 on CharityCompare (3 stars — Needs improvement). 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).

Does Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA have reviews and complaints? +

CharityCompare does not host public user reviews for Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA. Instead you get a filing-based Clarity Score, cause spend, reserves and red flags such as late accounts.

How much of my donation reaches Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA? +

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA 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 Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA's overheads? +

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA'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 Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA'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 Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA receive? +

Horsley, Bookham and Leatherhead RDA reported £128k total income in its 2025 accounts, based on UK regulator filings. Five-year trend: restructured.
