DOWN'S SYNDROME OXFORD

Down's Syndrome Oxford supports children and adults with Down's syndrome and their families within Oxfordshire.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board composition appears to be rather static

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
