FRIENDS OF OAKHILL GOOLE 

We work towards developing a 150 acre wildlife conservation area known as Oakhill and provide volunteers to protect and conserve wildlife habitat and species on the site. We provide a free events diary of outdoor educational and recreational activities for people of all ages and abilities and encourage the local community to be proactive concerning nature conservation and environmental awareness.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
