BARTON COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

BCA aims to enhance the life of the inhabitants of Barton by providing community facilities and developing and managing projects of a charitable nature. It has developed a strong record of developing and managing local projects such as a community cafe, social events, family activities, research, youth provision and learning with the core value of the work being led and owned by the community.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender 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
