PHOENIX CANOE CLUB LIMITED

PROVISION OF WATER SPORTS AND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
