The over-riding aim is to 'promote and foster' the game of rugby within the Naval Service by: Promoting the physical efficiency of members of the Naval Service by providing facilities and other encouragement to participate in the game of rugby football; Making grants for charitable purposes; Promoting amateur sport.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • More than half of total income was derived from trading and fees in the latest year
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
