Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
Why are there only 4 trustees?
The Board composition appears to be rather static
Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data

£33,161	16/03/2022	OUitC's Hub and Spoke model would enable FIT U's to be delivered in a targeted way in Banbury (3 cohorts), Abingdon (2 cohorts) and Oxford (3 cohorts) with engagement and promotion directed at residents in the ten areas identified in the Director of ....more OUitC's Hub and Spoke model would enable FIT U's to be delivered in a targeted way in Banbury (3 cohorts), Abingdon (2 cohorts) and Oxford (3 cohorts) with engagement and promotion directed at residents in the ten areas identified in the Director of Public Health Report 2019/20 as the most deprived wards across the county, those who are at most risk from CVD. https://insight.oxfordshire.gov.uk/cms/system/files/documents/202009_Bitesize_Oxfordshire%27s_10_most_deprived_wards_1.pdf Throughout the year, alongside FIT U's, OUitC will work with Oxford United FC and community partners such as Easington Sports FC, Age UK Oxfordshire and Active Oxfordshire to engage and recruit participants. Utilising the EFL Trust's strong partnership with National Academy of Social Prescribing we will connect with social prescribing services, local VCSE organisations, PCNs and GP surgeries to build an effective referral pathway into the programme to reach those individuals of greatest need. Funding would be used to provide a dedicated resource within OUitC to promote and deliver the programme, establish locations within each of Banbury, Abingdon and Oxford to offer this free to access programme to a maximum of 30 participants in each of eight cohorts. Within the year of the programme FIT U's would be delivered at least twice in each of the three locations. At the sessions the FIT U's participants would be provided with information from and signposting to existing smoking cessation services and where possible and appropriate, visits from the providers of the support. OUitC would set up follow-on maintenance multi activity sessions in each of the three locations to ensure new healthier behaviours established as part of FIT U’s programme continue to be sustained. On top of FIT U's engagement and delivery we commit to developing a public campaign of engagement, awareness raising and education, highlighting the risks of smoking, smoking prevention techniques and signposting existing cessation services.
