WILBY RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION INCORPORATING CARRIAGE DRIVING

To provide disabled children with the opportunity to ride so as to benefit their health and wellbeing

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Spending is declining
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
