## Why is there no Clarity Score for OutPost yet?

Our dataset does not yet contain the detailed filing history needed to score OutPost.
An unrated profile is a gap in our assessment, not a negative judgement about the charity.
The register facts and available annual-return disclosures above remain useful. Payment never influences a rating.

## What should you check before donating to OutPost?

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

- Read the charity’s annual report for its work and results. An unrated profile means we lack a full assessment; it is not a negative rating.
