SKIPTON-IN-CRAVEN CIVIC SOCIETY 

We hold lectures/activities to educate the public on the geography, history and architecture of area. We work to secure the preservation/protection and development of features of historic or public interest. We inspect all planning applications submitted to the local council and comment on these to promote high standards of planning and architecture in Skipton and environs.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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 but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
