MERIDEN SPORTS AND RECREATION TRUST 

The Trust's mission is to make sure that Meriden and its surrounding area is well served by sports facilities into the foreseeable future, supporting the core operating costs of Meriden Sports Park and providing small grants to encourage other sports and recreational initiatives in the area.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
