DENE VALLEY COMMUNITY TRANSPORT LTD

The charity's main activity is to provide a Community Transport service in the Dene Valley and surrounding areas.

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 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
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Spending is declining
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
