TURNTABLE FURNITURE

- Collect donated furniture and electrical items and supply it to people on low incomes who are referred by social and other support workers.- Refurbish and repair furniture as necessary.- Promote and contribute to Exeter's recycling strategy by keeping furniture out of local landfill sites.- Provide practical work experience for the long-term unemployed volunteers manning the charity.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

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
