LATIN AMERICAN DISABLED PEOPLES PROJECT 

To improve the quality of lives, independence and community integration of disabled spanish and portuguese speaking people, their carers, families and communities living in London through information, advice, advocacy, representation, interpreting, training, social and cultural events, and volunteer opportunities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • 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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
  • 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Established: 31 years
