YEOVIL LIONS CLUB (CIO)

The Yeovil Lions organise annual localised events to raise funds for local and national purposes, such as the annual Beer Festival, Fire Works Display and a biannual Charity Ball.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Established: 6 years
