LEEDS AREA RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION

Our sole objective as a group is to provide riding facilities for disabled children and adults so thatthey may benefit in their health, wellbeing and enjoyment of life.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board completely female?
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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