EAST SURREY RURAL TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIP

To provide accessable transport for those who are elderly, infirm, disabled, poor, live in isolated areas without access to public transport or people with young children, within the Surrey, Sussex, Kent areas.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

  • Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
