WEST CAMBRIDGE CHRISTIAN YOUTH MINISTRIES 

Religious Activities, Children and Young People
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are only 4 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
