HOME-START GOOLE & DISTRICT 

Home-Start is a national voluntary organisation which is committed to promoting the welfare of families with at least one child under the age of 8yrs. Volunteers visit families in their own homes each week, offering regular support, friendship and practical help. This family-centred support strengthens and empowers families, enabling them to find their own way forward through their difficulties.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
