LBJ COMMUNITY FORUM 

We are a Community Forum who provide many services to the areas we serve, the estates of Lowedges, Batemoor and Jordanthorpe. We manage the Community Centre to provide facilities for adult learning and job clubs, youth clubs and holiday clubs for children as well as activities for older people. We also help support other groups in the area, such as a Toddlers' Group..
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
