THE GREEN CORRIDOR

Working with disadvantaged 14 to 25 year olds on the fringe of exclusion, NEET, or struggling with the academic system. We help them to reach their potential through land based learning. Our programmes offer nationally recognised qualifications, enrichment activities and upskilling opportunities. Through land based engagement such as horticulture and conservation we help to unlock potential.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end

Established: 22 years
