YORKSHIRE UNIVERSITIES

Yorkshire Universities works to maximise the contribution of higher education to the region, and beyond, through collaboration, together and with partners, where this generates greater impact and public benefit. We seek to widen engagement with higher education, for individuals to develop their skills and with private and public sectors to create knowledge through research and innovation.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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