THE FRIENDS OF SCADBURY PARK 

The Friends help to secure and promote the conservation and protection of Scadbury Park, Chislehurst, in the London Borough of Bromley. They promote its use as a place for quiet, informal recreation, enjoyment and study, help with practical conservation work through voluntary action, and monitor its plants, animals and wildlife habitats and maintain and improve its biodiversity.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and 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
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
