DEAF HILL WARD REGENERATION PARTNERSHIP

WE ARE A VOLUNTARY BODY OF RESIDENTS FROM DEAF HILL, TRIMDON STATION WHO HAVE COME TOGETHER TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR LOCAL RESIDENTS. IT IS OUR INTENTION TO ENGAGE IN PROJECTS THAT WILL HELP TO RESTORE COMMUNITY SPIRIT AND IMPROVE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES WITHIN DEAF HILL AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

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
