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

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 Waves?

- 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.
