CAMBRIDGE LAND ECONOMY ADVISORY BOARD 

THE ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION AND RESEARCH BY THE DEPARTMENT OF LAND ECONOMY (OR ANY SUCCESSOR TO SUCH DEPARTMENT) OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE THROUGH THE PROVISION OF ADVICE AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT AND THE PROMOTION OF THE DEPARTMENT'S REPUTATION AND ACTIVITIES.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board composition appears to be very static and 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
  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
