Inspiring People, Empowering Organisations and Creating Opportunities through Sport and Physical Activity.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Financial issues to consider:

Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
Income was lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 18 years
