FRIENDS OF SILSDEN TOWN HALL

To promote the health & wellbeing of the residents of Silsden and the surrounding area through the provision of facilities which encourage educational, sporting & social recreational activities in Silsden Town Hall for all age groups.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

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
