MOTIVE8 BRADFORD LTD 

Motive8 Bradford Limited is a registered charity which supports young learners to find their own place in life, creating a path to their future. Our charity was established in 2012 and is based at the South Bradford Vocational Centre; we have brought a new management team to run the building, and our aim is to make it the most exciting and inspiring vocational education centre in Yorkshire.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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
Established: 12 years
