HAFWAY

We provide a range of activities facilities and services for young people in the Halliwell & Crompton wards and surrounding areas of Bolton. This includes engaging young people in physical and social activities to improve health, confidence, self-esteem and to help develop their skills for adulthood.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
