COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES PROJECT EALING (C.A.P.E.) 

CAPE is a Charity based in the London Borough of Ealing, for people who experience severe and enduring mental health problems. We offer support services to clients with a range of conditions that are either severe, highly disabling, and/or psychotic in nature. Equality of opportunity is paramount within our work and we promote the rights of our clients to lead fulfilled lives in the community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Established: 26 years
