PARAPRIDE 

ParaPride is working with social venues, public spaces and online platforms to create inclusive events and social opportunities that cater to the needs of all LGBTQ people living with disabilities, mental health and chronic health conditions and impairments. We also provide training and workshops to help venues and public spaces become more aware of the challenges faced by those we represent.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • 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 was lower than spending in the latest year
