FRIENDS OF WEM SWIMMING CENTRE 

Fundraising and support for Wem Swimming Centre. Proposal to manage Wem Swimming and Lifestyle Centre after 1 Jan 2015. Proposal to develop gym and other facilities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years
