MITCHAM CRICKET GREEN COMMUNITY & HERITAGE 

The Charity is concerned with all aspects of the Mitcham Cricket Green and its Environs. This includes being involved in heritage and conservation issues as well as recreational aspects of the area.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
Established: 19 years
