An investigation has been launched into the running of homelessness charity, North East Homeless.
Charity regulator, Charity Commission, confirmed that a compliance case has been launched into North East Homeless (NEH) following concerns raised about the governance of the charity. NEH founder Brian Burridge stepped down from the role of CEO earlier this month, citing physical and mental health and caring for his family as the reason for his departure.
Information on the Charity Commission website states that Emma Burridge, Mr Burridge's wife, was appointed trustee of the charity on November 21, 2022. She had previously been a co-trustee of NEH.
