CHAFFINCH
This charity is no longer on the register, removed on 31 October 2025. A removal is usually a charity that wound up, merged, or fell below the income threshold, and is not in itself a finding against anyone — but an appeal still quoting this number today is quoting a charity the Commission no longer registers.

What it does
Chaffinch raises money and material support for children and young people in the Kibera slum in Nairobi, Kenya. These are used for food, shelter, education, medical care and other related expenses by locally run projects and enterprises who care for youngsters who are orphaned, abandoned or from very poor families. In one of the poorest places on the planet they are loved and cared for.
In the charity's own words, as filed with the Commission.
