DON GORGE COMMUNITY GROUP

Our group co-ordinates activities within the Don Gorge for the benefit of the wildlife, nature and environment, businesses which operate within it and the public who visit. The area includes a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and we try to educate people into respecting what they come to see. As parking space is limited, we encourage access on foot, cycle or boat.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is predominantly male
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
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
