TO TRANSPORT PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AND THE ELDERLY TO SHOPPING, CLUBS, VISITING FRIENDS AND FAMILY, DOCTORS, DENTIST, OR PLACE OF STUDY
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile recently
