OXFORD CIVIC SOCIETY

Oxford Civic Society is dedicated to ever improving Oxford as a city and area for people to live, work, and relax. We are inspired by the needs and wants of our members and the community as a whole. We focus on the well-being and engagement of communities and their interactions with the city's environment. An appreciation of the past, the present and continuity into the future are fundamental.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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 is declining
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
