HUNTINGDONSHIRE VOLUNTEER CENTRE

Huntingdonshire Volunteer Centre (HVC) aims to promote and develop volunteering across Huntingdonshire. It operates from bases in each of the four main towns, providing some services directly (e.g. Social Car Scheme, Gardening service) and others by putting volunteers in touch with other charities. It works to develop and market volunteering opportunities and good practice.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
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:

The Board is predominantly male
The Board 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
