NEW HACKNEY EDUCATION BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP LIMITED

Inspire!, the education business partnership, delivers work-related learning, enterprise education and work experience to young people aged 3-24 from Hackney and neighbouring boroughs. By linking businesses and their employees with schools, we inspire, support and open doors for young people, giving them access to a world of choices and opportunities that may otherwise have remained out of reach.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
  • Why are there only 2 trustees?
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
