THE AIRBORNE INITIATIVE TRUST

The Airborne Initiative Trust is a registered charity whose objective is to develop the character and good citizenship of young people who are offenders or at risk of becoming offenders. It does this by arranging 5 day courses on Dartmoor for 18 to 20 year olds as an alternative to custody.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
