HORBURY CHURCHES TOGETHER

Support of religious activities and youth work, in particular the Horbury Breakthru Youth Project, which is open to all young people in Horbury and District and the catchment area of Horbury Academy ( including Lupset) aged between 11 and 21 years of age.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
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
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine

Established: 22 years
