PROMOTING CHILDREN IN PLYMOUTH

We are a Plymouth based charity with a vision of a city of opportunity where no child's life chances are dictated by poverty. We aim to achieve this by delivering, in partnership, high impact, long lasting projects that break the cycle of poverty in Plymouth. Working with local organisations we deliver projects that improve literacy, life skills, career opportunities and wellbeing.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and 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
