THE JIMMY DIXON CHARITABLE TRUST 

The Trust makes grants to support community-based youth work in line with its charitable objectives. The Trust does not accept unsolicited applications for grant.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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 was significantly lower than spending in the latest year but the charity has substantial reserves available
