TRIMDON UNITED JUNIORS FOOTBALL CLUB

We are a junior football club who provide training, competition and social connectivity for children and young people from 4yrs to 18yrs within the Trimdon area of county Durham.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why is the Board completely male?
  • Why is the Board composition very 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
