FOX CORNER COMMUNITY WILDLIFE AREA ASSOCIATION 

The wildlife area is a designated local nature reserve and makes the most of its natural assets - wetland, meadow and woodland. The association exists to ensure the area continues to be a self-sustaining and varied habitat requiring the minimum of intervention - at the same time as promoting public access, enjoyment and education.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Established: 24 years
