My 2nd thread today -unheard of! (I mostly lurk. New username.)

Anyone know about Pride in STEM? It seems they'll be involved in a workplace I'm associated with and I want to know if they're a positive organisation doing good stuff, or if they're more like the orgs pushing queer theory into public life.

Not a huge amount of info on their website, but I was unimpressed by their twitter account. One of their trustees is James Claverley, which is a familiar name, but I can't think why it's familiar. I tried to find the rest of the trustees on their website, but that info wasn't listed (found the other info accidentally on twitter).

Has anyone heard of them or have experience to report?

TIA

Isn't James Cleverly a Tory MP. Can't say I've heard anything about it which may be a good sign??.

Yes. Same results here. They say they have 9 trustees. Is it usual for a charity's information to be so hard to find? General web searches point only to its own website, its own social media, and events it's been involved in. Hmmmm.

On its website, it says "charity number EW64395" but it isn't listed as a charity on the Charity Commissioners website and I couldn't find it listed on Companies House. I couldn't find it listed as an American charity either and on its website, couldn't see a regd address.

I cannot find them either under their name or charity number on the charities commission site.

(I realise I'm talking to myself atm. I just want to keep the info together.)

I really hate that the atmosphere we're living in leads me to be wary of charities now, but there have been so many scandals lately. Sad times.
