C P SPORT 

Cerebral Palsy Sport is the country's leading national disability sports charity supporting people with cerebral palsy and other physical disabilities to reach their sporting potential and putting people with cerebral palsy and their families at the heart of everything we do. Our mission is to improve quality of life for people with cerebral palsy and other physical disabilities.
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 and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Income has been volatile recently
Established: 23 years
