FAMILY VOICE PETERBOROUGH

RESEARCH AND TRAININGTRIPS AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE WHOLE FAMILYSTRATEGIC WORK. WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HEALTH, EDUCATION AND SOCIAL CARE.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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