THE CRICKET ASYLUM FOUNDATION

The Cricket Asylum Foundation provides an inclusive opportunity for disadvantaged people to participate in the game of cricket to make a positive difference to the community.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

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