NEWHAVEN INTEGRATED PLAY PROJECT EDUCATIONAL AND RECREATIONAL SERVICES 

N.I.P.P.E.R.S. enables children and young people to develop to their full potential through a wide range of leisure and play activitiesand to educate adults to understand the value of play.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
