UNLIMITED OXFORDSHIRE

Unlimited Oxfordshire works for and with disabled people (adults) in Oxfordshire. We provide guidance and information on disability issues (at events, by phone, by email info@unltdox.org.uk) to individual disabled people and campaign on their behalf. We work with public sector agencies and commercial organisations to raise awareness of the issues that disabled people face and offer solutions.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
