The Charity Commission has launched an investigation into a charity connected to Middlesbrough mayor Chris Cooke, after its accounts “raised issues that required further investigation.”

The charity sector regulator is conducting an inquiry into Streets Ahead for Information, a community charity based in Middlesbrough which provides support for vulnerable people including the homeless, and offers advice and assistance to residents in the Gresham area. The Commission said it had engaged with the charity after it had failed to submit its annual accounts for the financial years ending August 2020 and 2021.

” Middlesbrough Council refused to comment, citing the ongoing investigation, while Streets Ahead for Information did not respond to repeated requests for comment. The inquiry was opened on April 16 this year and, according to the Charity Commission, will “examine if the trustees have fulfilled their duties and responsibilities under charity law.
