NORTHAMPTONSHIRE VOLUNTARY COMMUNITY SOCIAL ENTERPRISE ASSEMBLY LIMITED

By harnessing collaboration of community based voluntary , community and social enterprise sector organisations we aim to maximise sustainable funding and investment opportunities for our members and our communities.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
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 and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years
Income has been volatile recently
