NORTH EAST ESSEX CHRISTIAN YOUTH OUTREACH

CYO supports young people and schools through both long term involvement and short term projects that encourage personal and spiritual development and deliver pastoral support. We do this through our own staff and through a network of trained volunteers, and we offer resources and support to others doing similar work in the Colchester area.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

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