KIMBLESWORTH AND NETTLESWORTH COMMUNITY TASK FORCE 

The charity is used as a means to obtain and distribute funds which are used towards establishing and supporting local groups including a parent and toddler group ("Little Stars"), running a weekly volunteer community cafe, as well as one-off local events such as a Christmas lunch and subsidised day trips for families.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • 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

Financial issues to consider:

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