HILLINGDON PLAY ASSOCIATION 

Hillingdon Play Association is an organisation which advocates and support, promotes and co ordinates the provision of free quality play for Children and Young People in Hillingdon.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

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 has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
