THE BLACK AND MINORITY ETHNIC YOUNG PEOPLES' PROJECT 

The BMEYPP provides information, support and advice to BME young people aged 11 to 25, through youth drop in sessions, projects workshops, events, trips and schools support groups.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • 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 dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
