To provide facilities and services for recreational, sporting or other leisure-time activities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants and contracts
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • This charity appears to be dormant
