SOUTHAMPTON FAMILY TRUST

Southampton Family Trust supports families and children in Southampton, especially those struggling with deprivation, isolation, emotional and mental health issues and/or domestic abuse.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

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

Established: 21 years
