## Why is there no Clarity Score for hugs childrens cancer charity yet?

The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. hugs childrens cancer charity 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.
