CROSSWORLD 

Crossworld runs a range of fooball-related projects for young people who are seeking or have sought asylum in the UK in order to equip them to live productive and fulfilling lives. Crossworld's projects include a weekly drop-in project, and weekly training sessions and competitive matches for our eleven-a-side football team. We also run a series of summer activities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 13 years
