GLOBE COMMUNITY PROJECT

The Globe Community Project (GCP) offers a variety of free or affordable activities to the inhabitants of Globe Town and the neighbouring areas. These activities provide a range of educational, cultural and social services that benefit both individuals and the neighbourhood as a whole, reflecting the diversity and complexity of our community.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and 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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
