CAMBRIDGE ONLINE

Cambridge Online is an educational charity working across Cambridgeshire and the East of England helping disadvantaged (including disabled) people use computers and digital devices by providing education, training and advice to individuals and groups. Our aim is to broaden digital awareness and to raise levels of digital inclusion.

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 including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

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
(25 years as a company)
