BOCCIA ENGLAND LIMITED 

Boccia England is the governing body for the sport of Boccia in England. We support, organize and promote the sport. Boccia is a target sport that tests muscle control and accuracy, demanding extreme skill and concentration at the highest level.Played on a court by athletes with a disability, the sport offers both tension and excitement as athletes aim to land balls close to a target ball.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Reserves management has been consistently within official guidelines
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:
