OXFORDSHIRE MOTOR PROJECT

TRAX is a Motor project based in Oxford that works all over Oxfordshire; we provide a range of mechanical and practical based courses for young people aged 13-21. All of our courses include issue based group work, teambuilding, social skills and 1-1 sessions. We run City & Guilds, AQA and Entry Level qualifications.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
