MYATT'S FIELDS PARK PROJECT

The regeneration of Myatt's Fields Park: protection and conservation of its buildings and environment; provision of recreational facilities and activities for its users; the development of food growing in the park and the provision of training or work experience among local unemployed people.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
