TY GWYN HOLIDAY PLAY SCHEME 

Holiday play schemes for children with severe learning difficulties and complex medical needs. Bespoke play opportunities and experiences for children that attend Ty Gwyn School.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • This charity is based in an area of extremely high deprivation

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Established: 27 years
