THE VOLUNTARY AND COMMUNITY SECTOR LEARNING AND SKILLS CONSORTIUM

The organisation provides a range of services under 2 main headings.a) It acts as a 'hub' for the delivery of learning by voluntary sector providersb) It provides capacity building and workforce development for voluntary organisations

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity only provides its support via other charities
There are only 4 trustees
The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
