SURVIVE (SUPPORT FOR SURVIVORS OF RAPE AND SEXUAL ABUSE)

We provide support and information to adult survivors of rape, sexual assault and childhood sexual abuse in York and North Yorkshire.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 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:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
