For the benefit of the residents of Loughborough, Leicestershire to advance education, preserve and protect health, relieve poverty and to provide facilities for recreation or leisure time occupation for parents who are in need of such facilities by reason of their social or economic circumstances, or for the public at large, with the object of improving their conditions of life.
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 including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be very 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 and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
