DEVAS CLUB

The club provides a varied programme of sporting, recreational, educational and artistic activities for young people aged between 10 and 25, including those with special needs

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
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 age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

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