HERTS PEOPLE FIRST

A user led, rights based, self advocacy organisation run by and for adults with a learning disability. We run self advocacy groups, forum meetings, attend local, countywide and National consultation meetings. We provide 'Keep Safe' and 'Our Rights' training to people with a learning disability and staff. We operate in the area of Hertfordshire and the Eastern Region.

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently

Established: 22 years
