SPREAD
This charity is no longer on the register, removed on 24 January 2019. 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
The aim of Spread is to divide the cost of ending world starvation between the population of the rich world.Barclays closed one of our accounts in error and then the others without good reason.We appealed to the Financial Ombudsman, requesting that Barclays re-open our bank accounts and replace our regular income. As a private company, Barclays can make any commercial decision, so we closed.
In the charity's own words, as filed with the Commission.
