ROSS-ON-WYE AND MONMOUTH UNIT 625 OF THE SEA CADET CORPS

Promotes self-confidence, sense of responsibility, self-discipline, self-reliance and teamwork skills through sport and education based on Royal Naval traditions.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
