THE INNS COURT COMMUNITY AND FAMILY CENTRE LTD

The Inns Court Centre operates in Knowle West and the area is in the top 10% of the country in terms of social and economic deprivation. The centre has a community cafe, food store; similar to a food bank and a community bus and a soft play area for under 5's. It also hires out rooms to local user groups and also is the home of the local Children's Centre Hub run by the local authority.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and 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
Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
