CORNWALL LIFE RECYCLE CIO

We are based in Camborne and rescue and rebuild old bicycles, we work with people of all ages who are disadvantaged by health, learning or a disability to achieve this, each person works on a one to one with a volunteer or member of staff, and they learn new skills that will help them in the future. They also learn to work as a team and make new friends, reducing isolation and building confidence.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
The Board is predominantly male
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
