SHREWSBURY HOUSE 

Provision of a Youth Club and Community Centre in the Everton area of Liverpool, including a full programme of After School and Senior Club Activities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

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
