Four pillars — Accountability & Transparency (40), Financial Health (30), Financial Efficiency (20), and Community Support (10) — each scored on a continuous scale, not pass/fail cutoffs. A statutory inquiry sets the score to 0 automatically. [Full methodology →](https://charitycompare.pages.dev/methodology) Accountability & Transparency Scored from filings 40 points — filing history (15), trustee oversight (15, scaling up to a board of three or more), declared policies (10). Financial Health Scored from filings 30 points — reserves (15, full marks 3–24 months, tapering on both sides), income stability (10), liabilities to assets (5, scaling down as debt rises). Financial Efficiency Scored from filings 20 points — program expense ratio and fundraising cost, each on a graduated scale (not a single cutoff). Kept at 20% of the total: financial-ratio scoring alone is not a reliable effectiveness signal (see "why not just an overhead ratio?" below).

Is Centrepoint Soho a good charity? + Centrepoint Soho scores 76 out of 100 (4 stars — Good) on CharityCompare's Clarity Score, our independent read of its UK regulator filings. Around 71% of its spending goes to charitable activities (3-yr avg) and its accounts are up to date. That reflects how transparent and financially healthy it looks on paper — it does not measure the real-world impact of its work, so treat it as one factor alongside the cause you care about. CharityCompare never tells you where to donate. Is Centrepoint Soho a legitimate charity? + The register data used for this profile lists Centrepoint Soho as a registered charity (charity number 292411). Verify it on the official register: https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/charity-details/?regId=292411&subId=0. Check the current entry and the identity of anyone requesting money. Registration does not verify a particular appeal; Clarity Score summarises filing transparency, not programme impact. What is Centrepoint Soho's charity number? + Centrepoint Soho's charity number is 292411. Check that number on the official register (Charity Commission, OSCR or CCNI) or this CharityCompare profile before you donate — scammers sometimes reuse real numbers on fake appeals. What is Centrepoint Soho's charity rating? + Centrepoint Soho scores 76 out of 100 on CharityCompare (4 stars — Good). The Clarity Score (method v1.1) sums four pillars from UK regulator filings: Accountability & Transparency (40 pts), Financial Health (30), Financial Efficiency (20), and Community Support (10). Stars use the same bands as those labels — 90+ is 5★ Exceptional. It is not an impact ranking. Does Centrepoint Soho have reviews and complaints? + CharityCompare does not host public user reviews for Centrepoint Soho. Instead you get a filing-based Clarity Score, cause spend, reserves and red flags such as late accounts (one red flag on this profile: high fundraising costs). For formal complaints about a charity, contact the Charity Commission, OSCR, CCNI or the Fundraising Regulator as appropriate. How much of my donation reaches Centrepoint Soho? + Across the recent disclosed accounts used for this score, 71% of Centrepoint Soho's total spending went to charitable activities (3-yr avg across disclosed years). That is the closest official figure to "how much of your donation reaches the cause" — it is an average across all spending in the filing, not a pound-by-pound breakdown of an individual gift. What are Centrepoint Soho's overheads? + Across the recent disclosed accounts used for this score, fundraising costs were about 29% of total expenditure and fundraising plus separately reported governance figures amount to about 29% of expenditure (2023–2025, disclosed years); these categories can overlap, so this is not a distinct total of all administration costs at Centrepoint Soho. Centrepoint Soho's annual return for the year ending 31 March 2025 reports 31 employees paid more than £60,000, including 4 employees paid more than £100,000. The highest reported pay band is £150,001–£200,000 (1 employee). Individual salaries, including the chief executive's, are disclosed in the trustees' annual report rather than on the register. How much income does Centrepoint Soho receive? + Centrepoint Soho reported £63m total income in its 2025 accounts, based on UK regulator filings. Five-year trend: growing. Are Centrepoint Soho's accounts up to date? + Filing status: up to date (last filing 2026-01-30). CharityCompare flags late or missing accounts separately from the financial score. Where is Centrepoint Soho based? + Centrepoint Soho's registered contact address is in London (E1 7PF). It tells the regulator it operates in England, with a focus on homelessness. How much is Centrepoint Soho's chief executive paid? + The Charity Commission register does not name individual salaries. Centrepoint Soho's annual return for the year ending 31 March 2025 reports 31 employees paid more than £60,000, including 4 employees paid more than £100,000. The highest reported pay band is £150,001–£200,000 (1 employee). Charities normally disclose the chief executive's pay, or the pay of their highest-paid staff, in the remuneration note of the trustees' annual report and accounts. Where does Centrepoint Soho's money come from? + Centrepoint Soho reported £63m total income for the year ending 31 March 2025.
