FRIENDS OF RIVERSIDE NORTH PARK

We help create a well maintained and attractive public park that will enhance the quality of life for local people and act as a focus for bringing the community together. We raise funds in a variety of ways to improve the facilities in the Park, and encourage and facilitate educational activities when possible, including working with the local schools to arrange educational events.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 7 years
