SOPER HALL COMMUNITY CENTRE LIMITED

The primary objects of the charity are to provide services to help and support people in the local community by providing suitable community centred activities in the Soper Halls. The halls are actively managed to hold various markets, seasonal events and community activities. The charity seeks all available funding in pursuit of its objectives of redeveloping the Halls.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received Government grants
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
