EARTH 

EARTH is based in Ely using Allotment-techniques and other Resources to provide Training in Horticulture. Our clients work together learning many techniques, growing and preparing plants for sale, developing and maintaining the site. We work with adults who have learning-disabilities, young teenagers who don't attend school and people from local care homes.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

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