BDRHOF BENEVOLENT FUND 

A foundation to provide for relief of people involved in the sport of drag racing, a branch of motorsport, who have need of financial support through injury, accident or financial circumstance, including organisations that operate in drag racing but also for the public benefit, for instance the air ambulance services operating for the various counties in which the sport takes place.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

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
