OPEN STOREHOUSES

Community based project using a modernised double decker bus,extensively refitted as a chic multi functional cafe providing a moblie venue for social,educational, recreational and leisure use by going into the more challenging areas of the community and serving complimentary refreshments whilst also offering multi media entertainment for the youth as an alternative to congregating on the streets.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 2 trustees
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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
