FIGHT FOR PEACE INTERNATIONAL

At our Academy in Newham, we use boxing and martial arts combined with education and personal development to realise the potential of young people. Our Alumni Programme is an organisational capacity training consultancy and support services for local community based charities delivering programmes in communities affected by crime and violence in the UK and globally.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • Fundraising costs are low relative to funds raised
  • 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 dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
