AXMINSTER SKATEPARK

Our main activities to date are raising funds through charitable events and donations. However, the purpose of the charity is to develop and operate a skate park in Axminster
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
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly male
  • Over half the Board have joined recently
    • and returns have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years

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
