TECHTIVITY 

Our main activities are a weekly technology club (Tech club), 4-5 events per week through the school holidays and a surf club which runs through the spring and summer months (Wave Riders). In addition, we support the parent carers who attend these activities with their children through social gathering and relaxation opportunities.
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
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely female
  • 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
