CRAWLEY TOWN COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 

Our services are based on the belief that engagement through sport leads to more than developing sports skills. It harnesses a sense of mutual respect & trust, widens horizons, raises aspirations & provides opportunities for people from all backgrounds. Our projects are based on themes in health, education, inclusion, sports participation, training & employment, regeneration & community safety.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile recently
