SEN FAMILY SATURDAYS

We run sessions every Saturday morning at Hornsey Road Children's Centre from 10:30 to 2pm, with resources and facilities to aid creativity and sensory needs of autistic children. The children have free play/craft activity, soft play and lunch. Once a month we have a special activity: outing, workshop or entertainer. Parents are given the opportunity to join a support group.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is completely female
Latest return is overdue

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Latest accounts are overdue for filing
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
